September is Childhood Cancer & World Alzheimer’ Awareness Month

September is a month dedicated to raising awareness and supporting two incredibly important causes: Childhood Cancer and Alzheimer's Disease.

Sunshine, beach trips, and barbecues – summer is here!

While you're enjoying the warm weather, it's also a perfect time to give your wardrobe a refresh. But what to do with those clothes you no longer wear?

Here's where Collection 4 Clothes comes in!

We're on a mission to raise vital funds for charities supporting Childhood Cancer Awareness and World Alzheimer's Month this September.

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

Childhood cancer is a devastating diagnosis that affects not only the child but the entire family. While advancements in treatment have significantly improved survival rates, many survivors face long-term health challenges.

This summer, we join the global community in raising awareness of childhood cancer and the ongoing impact on survivors. By donating your unwanted clothes and items to Collection 4 Clothes, you contribute to vital research and support services for children and their families.

World Alzheimer's Month

Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia affect millions of people worldwide. This September, we unite in the fight against these debilitating conditions. By donating your unwanted items to Collection 4 Clothes, you help raise funds for research, support services, and awareness campaigns.
