Old uniforms from police, paramedics and firefighters are being recycled and reused to create bright, fun clothing for disadvantaged kids.
Key points:
- Uniforms 4 Kids takes old uniforms from emergency services and turns them into clothing for children
- The Mount Isa PCYC in Queensland’s north-west is the first PCYC to become involved
- Mount Isa Sergeant Bernadette Strow hopes it will benefit the community and serve as a social occasion for seniors
Queensland’s first Police Citizens Youth Club to come onboard with the Uniforms 4 Kids charity is based in Mount Isa in the state’s north west.
The PCYC’s Sergeant Bernadette Strow said the program would be beneficial not only for the kids receiving the clothes but the seniors involved in sewing them.
