Applications for the Back to School Clothing and Footwear Allowance are now open for 2022, according to Minister for Social Protection, Heather Humphreys TD.
The payment aims to ease the “pressures that families with school-going children are under at this time of year,” the Minister said.
The once-off payment towards the cost of school clothing and footwear is now accepting applications from eligible families for the 2022/2023 school year.
