Bag recommendation that helps children in care

I wanted to recommend the company Madlug - it was set up by a youth worker who was appalled to see children in care carrying their possessions in bin bags when they moved home.
This company donates a bag to a child in care for every bag sold. They are providing bags to young people I work with and it makes a huge difference to their dignity.
Madlug sell back packs, laptop bags, gym bags and bum
Bags!
Highly recommend and lovely quality. If you want a 10% discount code - use Wokinghamcares ( don't need to use a capital W). Def worth a look Smile www.madlug.com

What a lovely idea OP. You can also gift a bag to a child in care for £10 which I have just done. Thanks for highlighting it.

Lovely idea just gifted bag too❤️

And I can second this recommendation. The madlug bags are fabulous, my son had one for sport. All foster carers can ask for bags for their foster children.
