The main aims of our 'Phil' the Bag™ Scheme are to increase textile recycling rates, reduce landfill and to offer a financial reward to those participating in our project.
We collect all types of unwanted textiles including: adult and childrens’ clothes, hats, belts, bags, shoes, sheets, pillow cases, duvet covers, curtains, towels and school uniforms.
Please NO blankets, bric-a-brac, duvets, pillows, sleeping bags, soft toys, rugs, carpets, offcuts of fabric, tents, wet or dirty items.
Where does it go?
These textiles are then sold on & distributed to people who can use & enjoy them in developing countries, which at the same time saves our environment from the burden of further resources going to landfill.

The promotion is quite simple in that schools who wish to take part sell tickets for the certain family days held at Ascot Racecourse through a bookbag flyer promoting the day and earn cashback on tickets sold.
The advance booking price for Grandstand tickets is £23 each (£27 when purchased on the day) and we would sell them at this price with the school keeping £6 (26%) for every ticket sold.
This seems a good way for Ascot to tell local families about the Colts and Fillies club and family days and a good way for the PTA to raise funds with minimum effort, there would be no minimum or maximum order required so win-win all round.
We will provide the school with A4 flyers to be put into the book bags and an electronic copy to be emailed out giving details of the offer. You will be provided with a booking code on the flyer and tickets can be booked directly through the Ascot website.
