Figures out today show the average cost of secondary school uniform is £422 per year. This is a huge cost for parents and exactly why our grants exist. We're running a campaign to fund more uniforms for financially vulnerable families.

Research shows that money worries are the biggest cause of stress for UK employees. They are damaging to businesses too, often resulting in staff sickness. By promoting wellbeing services - such as our grants - employers can promote a culture of wellbeing.

Financial wellness is so important for our health. Unfortunately for many of the families we help, financial security and control is just not a possibility for them. That's why we are here. To make sure children get the essentials they need.
