Kate Stewart aims to buy around 400 non-branded school uniforms for low-income families.
A self-made millionaire has fundraised more than £12,700 to buy hundreds of school uniforms for low-income households as the cost-of-living crisis is “crippling families”.
Hundreds of children received two shirts and jumpers, two skirts or trousers, and a pair of shoes over the weekend, bought from shops such as Sainsburys, Asda, Argos and Shoezone. She said: “I work in a very deprived area, and children are returning to school and the parents just cannot afford new uniforms.
Ms Stewart was inspired to purchase the uniforms after previously struggling to afford her daughter’s uniform as a young mother. Ms Stewart, who is based in Southport, made her first million aged 23 with a string of tanning shops and beauty salons, before becoming owner of Liverpool’s Heritage Market and The Sandon pub.
