Special Edition - Call for Action*
*1. MAKE SCHOOL UNIFORMS AFFORDABLE*
Dear Residents,
I want to know whether you as residents find your local school uniforms expensive.
According to the Children's Society families spend on average £340 a year on secondary school uniform and £255 on the primary.
In a survey one in six families blamed school uniform costs for having to cut back on food and other basic essentials.
