Uniform Bank (Swap Shop)

Uniforms can be expensive, family circumstances can change and sometimes keeping your children clean and warm can be more difficult than you would ever imagine. 

The Academy Uniform Bank is an initiative that has been running for several years and is intended to help families by providing free items of school uniforms including PE kits and shoes.

Anyone is welcome to donate pre-loved clothing or collect anything they may need, subject to availability. Please help us to continue to help as many families as possible. 

People previously have been extremely generous, and we have been able to help families, some of which would never have been able to provide their children with warm winter coats, shoes, jumpers, and other items of uniform without the support HCACP community's help and support.

The Uniform Bank is available throughout the school year. Please contact Academy Student Support Centre on info@harriscrystalpalace.org.uk with requests for items of uniform, or to make a donation.
