# We want your boots!

Having access to some suitable footwear for football/rugby will make such a big difference to many of our students.

Please drop anything you would like to donate off at reception in the collection box.

Clean boots please! Tips below from Football Re-booted:

Check the label – Most modern boots can be machine washed. If not the entire boot, removable innersoles can be added to your next wash.

For non-machine washable boots, immerse the boot in hot soapy water and use an old toothbrush to give the seams and detailing a refresh. Once washed, pop the boots and innersoles (still separated) into a pillow case and put them on a spin-only cycle in the washing machine to remove excess water.

Natural drying is best for all types of boots. Don’t use artificial heat such as a tumble dryer, hair dryer or heaters or radiators - it could damage or reduce the life of the boots.
