Farming charity RABI offers help to struggling families with its 'Return to School' campaign

RABI farming charity ‘Return to School' campaign  to support families who worry about being able to afford school uniform and equipment closes this Friday ( August 25th).

This year's grant will offer £250 per household. Farming families with school age children are eligible to apply. The grant can be used to help cover the costs of PE kits, uniforms and other school items.

One mum who received the grant last year, told the RABI she had been saving £2.50 a week all year because she was 'concerned she would not be able to give her children what they needed' for the new school year. She also said she had 'struggled' with being able to afford heating oil. 

More information and FAQs can be accessed at the website below.
