Free School Uniform Initiative Launches!

August 19, 2025
 / 

**IMPORTANT UPDATE** Due to high demand all uniforms have now been allocated. If you submitted an application via the form for one you will be contacted shortly by the team.

 

It’s that time of year when Erdington families start preparing for a new academic year which includes getting ready to count the cost of everything!

So we’re especially excited to announce a new partnership initiative that will support local families with the expense of  buying essentials like uniforms, stationery packs and pencil cases.

Together with Vision for All, McDonald’s (Remmer Restaurants), West Midlands Police (Kingstanding Team) and Perry Common Community Watch, we have launched the Back to School initiative to help pupils aged five to 11 prepare for their return to the classroom.

All you have to do is scan the QR code below, input the details of the items needed and select a date and time to collect the items. There are two pick up options available for collection:-

Witton Lakes Eco Hub, B23 7XX, 27th August 10am-12pm

McDonald’s College Road, B44 0AA, 29th August 2pm – 3pm

If anyone needs support with filling in the form, you can visit one of our Hubs for assistance.
