First Days
First Days is a Berkshire charity that provides gently-used secondhand school uniforms to families by professional/school referral. These are not logoed items, but generic bits from trousers and skirts to school shoes and P.E. kit. Collection of items would need to be arranged by the referrer.

First Days provides clothing and baby gear for ages 0-9, by referral: https://www.firstdays.net.
