    Brief

    This service establishes a region-wide network that facilitates the collection and distribution of essential educational items to schools, early years settings, and colleges. The program aims to reduce educational barriers by providing donated goods such as school uniforms, digital equipment, scientific calculators, and other necessities that enable children and young people to fully participate in their education. Suppliers can engage by donating items, supporting the collection infrastructure, or assisting with distribution logistics. This initiative directly supports child poverty reduction by removing cost barriers to educational participation.
