Do you want to help local families?
Are you a practical person or good at DIY?
Are you able to give four hours of your time every week?

We’re in need of Maintenance Volunteers to help clean and safety check our pre-loved beds and buggies.

If this is you, please email [email protected]

And if you know someone who could be perfect for the role, please share this post!

Did you know that today is the most common birthday in the UK?

And did you know that through our Celebrations Project, we give out brand new birthday presents to children whose families are struggling to afford the essentials?

On average, we give gifts to four children a month, with every child receiving around 3 gifts each

Help us by donating brand new gifts for children aged 0 - 16 so that every child gets to feel special on their special day 🎁

We need brand new toys, books, games and crafts
