Mrs Marisa Broadbent, our enthusiastic Centre Lead of the popular Young Enterprise cohort is asking for donations of items that support ‘zero waste’ . GMS’s Young Enterprise students wish to use materials that can be recycled.
She writes, “We are extremely proud to have two teams of Year 10 and 12 students who are building and launching their businesses as part of the Young Enterprise Programme and National Competition.
{They require] donations of materials to create their products. Their focus and ethos is to try to be as zero waste as possible and considering this use recycled materials that would otherwise be placed in the bin or donated to charity shops.”
The following is a wish list of items:
- Books for all ages – immediate preference is good conditioned Christmas Books and Children’s books, self help and well being books, however, all books welcomed.
- Good conditioned materials – shirts, fabrics, table cloths, curtains
- Fluffy and velvet materials
- Baskets – all sizes and shapes
- Gift boxes and wooden boxes
- Ribbons
- Cushion stuffing
- Hot water bottles
- Old blankets, warm materials
- Accessories like Pom Poms or charms
- Football shirts or any colourful graphic clothing
- Unwanted and unopened gifts including hand creams, shampoos, face creams, teas and coffees
All items are gratefully appreciated. Please drop donations at reception or ask your child to take them to G14, ideally by Monday 16th November.
Your support is valuable, thank you.
