BRAIN TUMOUR RESEARCH "WEAR A HAT DAY" SCHOOL PROJECT 2024

Lock & Co. is honoured to have worked with the wonderful reception class pupils (four- and five-year-olds) at Blakesley Primary School, Northamptonshire, for Brain Tumour Research’s Wear a Hat Day again on the 28th of March, 2024.

Each pupil learned from members of our team at Lock’s about the history of hats and how they are made, and then had the opportunity to design, make and trim their own hats, using their own imagination, ideas and inspiration!

A selection of the fabulous creations by the pupils of Blakesley Primary School was on display in the shop windows at Lock & Co., 6 St. James’s Street, London, from Monday, 25th March until Tuesday, 2nd April, 2024.

On Wear A Hat Day, Lock & Co. seeks to raise much needed funds for the Brain Tumour Research charity. You can donate to Brain Tumour Research here:
