Free school uniform exchange forced to close because of one selfish person

An ‘essential’ kids’ school uniform exchange has been forced to close as one inconsiderate person is repeatedly taking all the clothes. Prestwich Community Closet operates a free used school uniform exchange from outside the Village Greens grocery store at the Longfield Centre in Prestwich village.

However, the exchange has now been forced to pause due to the actions of a single person abusing the service almost daily. In a post on Instagram on Thursday, April 25, organiser Rachael Overfield, said: “Hey people of Prestwich and the surrounding community. “This was a difficult decision because we know how much this initiative has meant to so many in our community. However, the reason we’ve had to halt the project comes down to one person - an individual who has made a habit of clearing everything from the rail on an almost daily basis despite being asked to stop.
