Introducing the Trashy Bags Africa Upcycled Pencil Case with an Off-Cut Fabric Outer and Plastic Waste Lining - the sustainable solution for individuals of all ages seeking both style and eco-consciousness in their everyday organisation. The Trashy Bags Africa Upcycled Pencil Case is not just any pencil case; it's a statement piece. Each Pencil Case is handcrafted in Ghana with an innovative combination of materials. The outer layer is made from off-cut fabric, minimising textile waste, while the interior lining consists of upcycled plastic waste. This pencil case is built to withstand the rigors of daily use. Its robust construction ensures that it can handle your pens, pencils, markers, and other stationery essentials, making it an essential companion for school, work, or creative endeavours. By choosing this pencil case, you're not just organising your stationery; you're actively participating in the fight against plastic pollution and supporting sustainable practices.

Plastic waste has become a big problem across Africa because of the lack of recycling initiatives and waste management infrastructure.
Through ingenuity and unwavering dedication, Trashy Bags pioneered a revolutionary approach to recycling. Every day, they collect thousands of discarded plastic bags from the streets, markets, and landfills, breathing new life into what was once considered worthless. These bags undergo a meticulous transformation, methodically washed, sorted, and transformed by skilled artisans into high-quality, eco-friendly products.

At Trashy Bags Africa, they are committed to fostering economic empowerment and social change. By providing employment opportunities to local artisans, many of whom are women and youth, we're not just creating jobs – we're nurturing talent, building skills, and catalysing sustainable development from the ground up.

Every purchase not only reduces waste but also directly supports the livelihoods of those who craft these one-of-a-kind treasures.

Standard delivery charge to most UK postcodes is £2.99, with free delivery for orders over £50.

Homeless Outreach Teams

Homeless Outreach Teams

Helping teenagers & young adults find a place to live…

Housing is a basic human right, yet thousands of children and young people are homeless, or facing homelessness in Britain today.

We work with young people who are homeless and those living in places that aren't safe or don't have a proper tenancy. We help them get somewhere to live that's right for them, and we support them in their tenancies.

Our outreach teams on the streets actively look for homeless young people. We provide a friendly ear as well as referring them to the right people and organisations who can help them

We also carry out preventative work against homelessness with children and young people leaving the care system, to help set them up in supported lodgings in safe family homes where they can learn skills ranging from learning to cook and complete housework, to finding further education and training.

“If I hadn’t come to Barnardo’s, I think I would still be homeless today. Barnardo’s has really changed my life. There was a time when I didn’t feel things could get better. The workers at Barnardo’s believed in me and helped me to see that things would improve and with the right support, I could make something of my life. They helped me to get back on my feet and see a way forward.” - Aamira, young homeless person.

Aamira is now studying sciences at university and volunteers for the Barnardo’s service that supported her. She is also an ambassador for young people’s mental health services within the NHS and a hospital volunteer.

All purchases made from Barnardo’s online shop directly funds our frontline services helping children and young people.
