The clothing collection for Mendip YMCA was a great success with lots of donations and school-wide collaboration.
Michelle from Mendip YMCA came to collect our donations, and it was amazing to see her car so full of the bags of clothing and blankets that had been brought in and which had been so generously donated.
The donation is currently being sorted with extra help called in from colleagues within the YMCA to divide the load. The clothes are going out to those in need and to the charity shops associated with the organisation.
I hope this is an action that we can repeat on a bigger scale throughout the School in the future.
Thank you very much for your support.
Amelia - Prefect
We had a little trip to @KingsBruton last week and were welcomed by Amelia and other students who had kindly organised a clothing donation in support of the vulnerable people we help. Thank you, we were overwhelmed by your generosity #community pic.twitter.com/kPr7fs9b9s
