Let’s help every child return to school in August with pride and confidence! Not every child starts the school year with a new uniform — and that can deeply impact self-esteem, inclusion, and attendance. At The School Bank West Lothian, our mission is to make sure no child feels left out.
In the past 9 years, we’ve supported over 10,000 young people from families facing financial hardship. In the last year alone, 1,900 children were referred to us by schools, charities, social workers, and community partners.
How You Can Make a Difference:
Sponsor-A-Child – Buy a uniform pack for a referred child (3–6 items). We’ll send you a list of what’s needed, you buy the items, pass them to us and we do the rest!
