We will keep updating this page with our events for the year. Some of the dates will need to be TBC as they will rely on external factors, but we will do our best to confirm them as soon as possible!

If you want to get involved in any of these events, then just get in touch. It might be you help run the bar for an hour at Inflatables Day, support the Father’s Day stall for one lunchtime in school, or put up some posters to advertise the Scarecrow Trail.

With future events, we are always looking for support in having prizes donated, match funding or time actually organising or setting up an event.  You don’t have to be on the committee to help and you won’t even need to attend any meetings if you don’t want to!

Bag2School

Bag2School is a free eco-friendly fundraising scheme that helps schools, businesses, community groups, local councils, and charities raise funds through textile recycling as well as spreading textile recycling awareness. They pay 50p per kilo or £500 per tonne.

They collect, clothes, paired shoes, handbags and hats, bags scarves and ties, bras, jewellery and socks, belts soft toys, household linen, household curtains, towels and bedding. Items they don’t collect are duvets and blankets, pillows or cushions, carpets rugs or mats, soiled painted ripped or wet clothing, school uniform with or without logos, corporate clothing or workwear, textile off cuts, yarn or threaded material, furniture or large items and batteries.

You can drop off your bags of suitable items in the Woolpack car park on the morning of Thursday, 23rd January – they will then be taken away, weighed and we will be paid!
