In My Shoes

18th Apr 2023

We need your shoes!

We are delighted to be taking part in this year’s In My Shoes April campaign, collecting preloved sports shoes and sending them to children in African townships.

Watch this 60 second video to learn more about the campaign: https://youtu.be/0EDaM375Oe0

We need:

  • Used but in good condition children’s sports shoes (runners, sneakers, football boots etc)
  • Just ask yourself would you be happy for your child to still wear them, if the hadn’t been outgrown.
  • Clean shoes - they need to be reasonably clean i.e. no obvious dirt or muck, check the soles
  • Shoes need to be tied together securely via the laces, with cable ties or strong elastic bands.

So get up into the attics and under the stairs now!
