School Uniform Donations

Do you have any school uniforms, sports clothes, school bags, gym bags, or school stationery that you don’t need anymore?

If they’re still in good condition, please think about donating them to the Free Back to School Uniform Events!

You can drop off your donations at any Dumfries and Galloway Council Customer Service Centre between Monday 7 July and Friday 15 August 2025.

Thank you so much for your help!
