Shoe recycling for Emmaus Salford

Following on from our success last year we will once again be collecting unwanted and unused footwear for children living in ‘Shoe Poverty’ in the Salford area.

If you have school shoes, trainers or wellies that your children have outgrown, please drop them at one of our collection points in school. All footwear will be donated to the Emmaus Salford School Uniform Hub which redistributes school uniform items and children’s shoes free of charge to families in need.

Please ensure all footwear is in clean, useable condition and attached together by the laces or an elastic band. It would also be helpful if a piece of paper indicating the size could also be attached.

There will be a collection box in the main reception area until the end of term and a further box for donations left outside the Prep building at morning and afternoon drop off / collection. Early Years and Prep children can also bring donations into school to be given to their class teacher and may choose to wear their own (appropriate) footwear for the last week of term.

We will also collect additional footwear donations on our return in September.

Many thanks for your continued support.

As a family focused school, championing and supporting others lies at the heart of everything we do.
