The Madlug Junior school bag a great choice for primary school kids. This 15-litre bag has a main zippered pocket, a handy front pocket and top loop for storage. It also has easy-to-open and close paracord zip pulls. The backpack is lightweight and easy to clean.

Making A Difference

For every backpack purchased, Madlug gives a pack-away travel bag to a child in the care system. Because no child should carry their life in a bin bag.

How many bags have been donated?

To date over 70,000 bags have been donated with a further 10,000 bags in production and they will be fully distributed throughout 2023.

What bag do the children get?

The bag itself is unbranded to avoid stigma. It folds away to fit neatly into a sock drawer or a Social Worker’s car boot without wasting storage space. And each bag has a label that says “You are incredible” to remind every child that they have value, worth and dignity. 

How does Madlug give the donated bags?

In 2022 alone, we donated over 12,000 pack-away travel bags across the UK and Ireland. These go to social workers in local authorities and foster carers, as well as directly to young people and their families.

How does Madlug decide where the bags go?

Bags are donated at their own discretion according to where there is a need for them. They partner with various local authorities largely across the UK and Ireland, seeking out new partnerships through word of mouth.

Treesa' good

For every order we'll plant a tree on our property, here in the UK. Your tree will soak up approximately a tonne of CO2 in its lifetime.

If you sign up to receive email updates from us, we'll ask you to name your sapling. We plant the trees in late winter / early spring, to help ensure their success. Keep an eye on our socials to see your tree planted.
