With
4.2 million children in the UK living in poverty - that’s 9 children in a class
of 30 - many children don't have the right clothing to keep them warm and dry.
That's why, at the end of last year, we ran a Crowdfunder campaign to help kit out the UK's primary schoolchildren in wet weather clothing.
Thanks to everyone who generously donated to the campaign, we were able to raise over £6,000.
These donations will enable us and Muddy Puddles to provide high-quality wet weather clothing libraries for full classes of 30 pupils in 7 primary schools across the UK. These clothing libraries will ensure that children can get outside whatever the weather, year after year.
