We reached a bit of a milestone this week when our 200th basket was collected. We want to say a huge thank you to anyone who has donated to our charity and to the professional organisations who make the referrals and collect and deliver the baskets. We could not do it without you all.

These baskets have been prepared recently for imminent collection. A big shout out to the midwives, health visitors and other professionals who make the referrals and then collect and deliver the baskets. Without them we would be unable to help support the mums and babies.
Thank you
