About Us

What we do here at Back to SchoolBank East Renfrewshire is actually very simple, we supply brand new school uniforms and everything that’s need for the school day. This includes indoor and outdoor gym kit, schoolbags and stationery.

Our committee is made up of 6 (unsalaried) trustees and have a bank of additional volunteers who step in whenever they are needed. 

 We operate through a referral system, working with local support agencies and schools and we have developed long-standing and recognised partnerships with our local council and their relevant departments such as HSCP and Social Work as well as other support agencies within East Renfrewshire.

The children referred are anonymous to us. We have no other details other than what they need, the schools they attend, the age of the children and the sizes required for them.

Our referral applications come from children of families who find themselves in any kind of vulnerable position, We accept the due diligence of our referrers and accept without question, their applications to us for help for their families.
