We had a TEN Foundations Assembly in school this week. We discovered how by buying bags made by workers in the Philippines can give new life and hope to families living there. We were very impressed with the superior quality and design of these bags which suit all age groups and needs. School bags, shopping bags and lunch bags, to name but a few uses, and at a good price too ! Watch this space for a pop up shop at the Boulevard this summer for all your ‘Back to School’ needs. 🎒
