Pre-loved clothes project sells items for 50p

A community project is offering clothing for as little as 50p to help families who are struggling with the cost of living.

The Echo project, based at York House in Manor Top, Sheffield, sells pre-loved clothing, including coats, shoes, sportswear and school uniforms.

The project is run by Manor and Castle Development Trust in collaboration with community interest company Uni-Recycle, which collects and redistributes school uniforms at low prices.

Organisers said they wanted to make affordable clothing accessible to everyone while challenging the stigma sometimes associated with buying second-hand.

Manor and Castle Development Trust has been operating for almost 30 years and has about 45 members of staff.
