The start of a new school year should be an exciting time for children and families. But I know it can also place significant pressure on household budgets, with the cost of uniforms, shoes and stationery quickly adding up.
Researchers say parents spend an average of £225 per child on back-to-school essentials and I want to hear about your experiences of preparing for the new school year.
Please take two minutes to complete my survey and share your thoughts. Your feedback will help inform my work on behalf of local families. Thank you.
