School Uniform Recycling Toolkit 2023

 

Download Infographic Report

The Southern Area Locality Planning Team have produced an Infographic to report on the impact of this year’s School Uniform Recycling Toolkit. This free resource was produced to provide a user friendly, free, practical guide for schools and community groups to use in order to hold a successful school uniform recycling scheme. We provided checklists for discussions, templates to use, tips which shared good practice, and evaluation forms which we collated to produce individual reports for each initiative.

11 schools and groups used the Toolkit during 2023 and send completed feedback forms to demonstrate the effectiveness of the resource.

We had around 1,250 items donated totalling a value of over £8,000. These items were successfully recycled across the Southern area.

If your school or group is interested in finding out more about this free resource, and how to avail of our support in 2024, please contact Darren  Curtis at localityplanning@ci-ni.org.uk

Armagh Locality Planning Group: Feel Good Armagh

Friday 9th and Saturday 10th June saw 2 massively successful events to showcase support services in the Armagh locality area. 

On Friday 9th June, 66 services hosted information stalls to highlight support for all ages in the Armagh area.   The event was held at City of Armagh Hotel and funded through Ark and Tringle Housing along with Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Council. 

 

On Saturday 10th June a youth event was held at the EA Youth Service’s Epicentre Youth Centre and open to the 11+ age group. Around 170 young people took part in a wide variety of activities ranging from Arts & Crafts and African Drumming to Boxercise and Dungeons and Dragons.  A total of 22 activities were offered along with free pizza, fruit kebabs and refreshments.  The event was a joint effort from 11 member services of Armagh Locality Planning Group and funded by CYPSP, CiNI, SHSCT and ABC Council.

Both events were agreed at a previous meeting of Armagh LPG to highlight the support services available for all ages in Armagh with a particular emphasis on activities for children and young people.
