Washing own uniform

I remember a mate of mine telling me that you could claim money back if you washed your own work uniform.
Does anyone havea template letter for this please?

    Heres the thread, read through it it explains what to do, I got back £166.68 for 5 years worth, but if you are working it will just be adjusted in your tax code,so no money in your hand as such. If you are not working they will send it to you in the form of a cheque.
