EXTRA HELP WITH SCHOOL UNIFORM COSTS
IF you can't get targeted help from your council, you might have some other options available to you.
In some areas, you can talk directly to your school, which might be able to offer you clothing.
Or, you might be able to get cheap garments from low-budget shops or charity stores.
Some charities offer help to families in need too.
But bear in mind charities often have a limited amount of money to give and usually have specific criteria which must be met in order to get a grant.
Charity Turn2Us has a free grants search tool on its website which you can use to find out what help is available to you.
Meanwhile, you can always try approaching your nearest Citizens' Advice branch.
If you don't know where your nearest Citizens' Advice branch is, you can find out by visiting www.citizensadvice.org.uk/about-us/contact-us/nearby/.
If you're not eligible for a school uniform grant you might be able to get help through the Household Support Fund.
M&S is also offering savings of up to 20% on school uniform buys this summer.

Little-known way to get half-price food from Sainsbury's, Asda and Morrisons
With food bills set to rise by an average of £275 this year, everyone will be looking for ways to cut costs on groceries. And while you can try and do this by visiting the UK's cheapest supermarket for your weekly food shop, there's also a little known way to save 50% when ordering items from the likes of Sainsbury's, Asda or Morrisons for a top up. If you find yourself reaching for Deliveroo on days where you just can't be bothered to go out, then you'll want to keep reading. That's because the delivery app has launched a new deal that allows customers to bag themselves half-price food. The Fridge Filler Monday offer is live every Monday and allows shoppers to save 50% on selected fresh and chilled items from Sainsbury's, Co-op, Asda, Iceland, Morrisons and more. This includes everything from fruit and vegetables to meat, fish, poultry, dairy, eggs, bakery and products like ready meals. Discounts are available nationwide and the best part is that there's no minimum spend requirement to use it. But there is a bit of a catch. The T&Cs state that only 90% of customers are eligible for the offer, so while it's the vast majority, not everyone is able to use it. Savvy shopper Lauren Kaye (@_thekayfamily on TikTok) shared a look at an order she'd placed using the Fridge Filler offer at Iceland. The total came to £18 and included part-baked baguettes, bananas, soft pittas, a tiger bloomer, a pineapple, crisps, frozen pizzas, TGI Fridays potato skins, chicken breast fillets and Lurpak butter. For Lauren, the butter was the real standout of her shop, as she managed to nab the 'absolute bargain' for 'just a quid'. Deliveroo isn't the only platform with a similar offer, as Uber Eats also has a Fresh Mondays promotion, which allows customers to buy half-price fruit and vegetables (selected items) at the start of each week. Supermarkets that are featured in this deal including Sainsbury's, Co-op, Iceland, Asda and Morrisons. The discount is automatically applied at checkout, but delivery and service fees still apply. Just Eat doesn't have a consistent weekly promotion, however they do sometimes run Half Price Wednesday offers. So it's worth checking the app to see what's available. If you'd prefer to still head to the supermarket to stock up on groceries, instead of ordering on an app, then there are still some ways to save money this summer, as Aldi and Iceland are offering millions of families money off their weekly shop. Iceland and The Food Warehouse are offering a great way to get money off your weekly shop, from June 30, until August 30, 2025. The supermarkets will be accepting free school meal vouchers to get you money off your groceries. The money you get off your shop is dependent on the monetary value of your free school meal vouchers, which varies depending on your council, but is typically £15 a week. What's more, is if you spend the minimum of £15 of School Meal Gift Cards, then you can get an extra £5 off your shop. More Trending This is as long as you have a registered Iceland and The Food Warehouse Bonus Card. You'll need to scan it in store when completing your shop, and then wait up to seven working days for the £5 bonus to be credited onto your card. Meanwhile, Aldi has launched its Summer Support Scheme which will see vouchers given away every day over the six-week break in July and August. This one is more of a competition format and, to enter, you'll need to send your name and email address to SummerSupportScheme@ to be eligible. View More » Of all the families that do this, one will be chosen at random each day to receive a £50 voucher to spend in store. There are a total of 62 vouchers up for grabs.
