Daffodils Dreams "Dedicated to creating 'Positive Life Experiences' for children and families in Wigan Borough. Join us in making a difference! πŸ’™ "

We are a registered Community Interest Company formed in February 2018, who operates in the Wigan Borough. Through our work we grow confidence, connection and community at the same time as alleviating material poverty. We have our work cut out: 40% of children in the borough are living in poverty. Daffodils Dreams is passionate about creating opportunities for children and their families who find themselves living in hardship in Wigan. We aim to do this by funding children's chosen activities, providing workshops around managing day to day life skills, and providing everyday essential items to those in need. Anything that is needed to give children the opportunity to thrive. Daffodils Dreams is here to bridge the gap between those who have items to donate and the families who would welcome them. We collect great quality donations of clothes, toys, bedding, baby equipment, toiletries for children of all ages. We collect donations of furniture, white goods and we gift these donations on to local families who are dealing with really challenging circumstances – homelessness, unemployment, low wages and domestic violence. Families are sent our way by our network of referral partners – health visitors, children’s centres, local authority family service, but also faith organisations, other charities, and public servants. Our dream is that no child in the Wigan borough grows up without essential items of clothing, toys and equipment. We have established strong links with a wide range of agencies such as Social Care, Citizens Advice Bureau, Children's Centres, Health Visitors and Housing amongst others. These agencies are now referring families on a regular basis, and there is no shortage of equipment for us to pass on to needy families. We are also known as a haven for accessing emergency equipment when it is needed following an event that wasn't anticipated.

πŸ’› EVERY REFERRAL RECEIVES A LITTLE PIECE OF OUR HEART

Today, we received a referral from Wigan Council for a young boy who needed clothes.

Hearing about his circumstances was difficult. We won’t share his story, but we’re so pleased we could help with something he needed. This is exactly why Daffodils Dreams is here.

Fran, one of our wonderful volunteers, carefully chose his clothes, putting thought, love and attention into the selection. We really hope he likes them and enjoys wearing them. πŸ’›

Every referral is for a person with their own story. They deserve care, dignity and the reassurance that someone cares.

Thank you to our volunteers and everyone who donates. Your kindness helps us turn a request for support into something personal and thoughtful. 🌼

It’s that time of year again… Christmas isn’t far off! πŸŽ„πŸŽ

Our first van full of toys and gifts was collected today by the lovely Dave from Greenmount Projects for the Team Wigan and Leigh Christmas Appeal. πŸ’›

At Daffodils Dreams, we’re proud to be working together to bring a little Christmas magic to children and families across our borough.

A heartfelt thank you to Dave, Greenmount Projects and everyone who has donated so far. Every gift is given with kindness and will mean so much to a child this Christmas.

We couldn’t do this without your support. Thank you. πŸ’›

Bill the toy maker has been busy again! πŸ§ΈπŸŽ„

He’s been making toys for our Christmas appeal, including some lovely new designs, all for the children we support across our borough. ❀️

It was lovely to catch up with him over a brew in the community lounge, alongside some of our regular visitors. β˜•πŸ’›

A busy lounge and lots of lovely company yesterday! πŸŒΌπŸ’›

Thank you to Simone for a lovely planting session, with everyone heading home with a pot, daffodil bulbs and other flowers to enjoy.

Some joined in, others were happy watching, chatting amongst themselves or simply sitting quietly with their own thoughts. There’s no pressure to do anything β€” just come as you are and enjoy being here.

That’s our Community Lounge: a place where everyone belongs and feels part of the Daffodils Dreams family. πŸ’›
