Uniform Bank
Uniform Bank is an opportunity to donate, collect or swap children’s school uniform for local schools.
We were honoured to be visited by The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh in March 2024 in recognition of our work in the community.
Their Royal Highnesses got to see the positive impact we are having in our local communities through our amazing partners.
How some of our clients have found help:
“The Signpost liaison workers were sympathetic and adept, quickly registering me for several online employment services and local courses, and organising the benefits I needed. I was always welcomed, and always left feeling refreshed and motivated.”
— Mr R.
“Signposts helped me with job applications, however they quickly identified that I shouldn’t be looking for work at all, as I had started caring for a sick family member. They revised my benefits claims, and helped me with food packages while the claim was processed.”
— Stefan
