Looking for school fundraising ideas?
You've come to the right place
The Little Recyclers® is a school fundraising programme based on clothing recycling. We offer schools, playgroups, nurseries, and other organisations to raise funds & protect our environment at the same time by donating unwanted clothes.
Our goal is to encourage children, parents, and teachers to recycle clothes – in this way, we can minimise textile waste going to the landfill.

How DOES it work?
Choose Preferred Way to Collect Clothes
FILL YOUR OWN BAGS
This option is great if you have little space in your school/organisation or you plan to fundraise rarely. Bring bags with clothes to your school on the arranged collection day. Simple as that!
OR
ORDER A CLOTHING BANK
This option is perfect for schools/organisations which have space for a clothing bank outdoors and plan to collect clothes regularly. If there's no space outside, order our internal clothing bank!
Fill out the online form or call 07476 406699 to arrange a FREE collection. We'll send you some promotional tips & leaflets.
Fill any bags, boxes or suitcases with clothes, shoes & accessories. Please click here for the list of items we accept.
On the collection day, bring all the bags to school. We will collect them, weigh & pay in 48 hours after collection.
Based on the weight collected, receive a bank transfer straight to your organisation's bank account. It's £0.55/kg!
Fill out the online form or call 07476 406699 to order an external or internal clothing bank.
A delivery date will be arranged for clothing bank. Your clothing bank will be placed either outdoors or indoors.
Once the bank is full, contact us and we will come to collect the clothes. We'll pay 55p for every kilo!
Repeat the process as many times as you wish!

William Tyndale F&SA16 April 2024We started collecting clothes with Little Recyclers a couple of months ago and it’s going well. The clothes container looks nice and we had a good response from people who have dropped off a few items already. The Little Recyclers team are friendly and efficient.

PTA Kingsmoor4 November 2023Amazing service. From the very beginning the team have been very quick to respond to emails and answer questions. They are always avaliable and the whole process is very easy to manage. All you have to really do is gather the donations. Will be doing this again in the new year.
