We love a corporate volunteer day, and last week we were lucky enough to host a brilliant team from ! 🌟

They started their day by delivering an amazing donation of brand-new toys which are perfect to help stock our upcoming Christmas shop. They then got stuck into sorting and steaming donations, and moving furniture around and giving our School Uniform shop a complete makeover.

The shop looks incredible, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their hard work, energy, and corporate support. Thank you for standing alongside us - you’ve made a wonderful difference for local families! 💙

As if the London Marathon wasn't already a massive challenge, one of our incredible runners, Maddie, is taking things to a whole new level, and taking part in the BigSea 54k Ultramarathon this Saturday! 🤯🏃‍♀️💨

We are in absolute awe of her dedication and how hard she has trained, all to continue raising vital funds for First Days.

Help us to show Maddie some huge community support! If you can, please cheer her on and celebrate this epic effort with a donation here:

GO MADDIE!! We are all cheering you on! 💙🎉

As we celebrate , we want to say a massive thank you to our wonderful team of volunteers. They give their time and energy to enable us to continue our work in the community, and we are so proud to have them 💙💜

We'd always love more helping hands with sorting our donations, ensuring they are in great condition and directly helping us to offer choice, dignity, and power to local families.

If you’d like to join us, please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you!

Huge thanks to the family who returned their buggy (plus a bag of clothes!) to us today. They originally received the buggy from First Days and wanted to “pay it forward” now that they no longer need it.
We ❤️ seeing items come full circle to support another family in our community

Are you finding things tough with your child’s needs right now?

Navigating assessments or a diagnosis for autism, ADHD, or learning needs can feel incredibly overwhelming - especially when you’re already juggling money worries, relationship stress, or just the pace of everyday life.

You don’t have to do this on your own. Our online coaching group is a safe, friendly space to:
💜Talk about the real stuff - from meltdowns and school refusal to the daily mental load.
💜Swap ideas - share what’s actually worked for you and hear from others in the same boat.
💜Be understood -by a group of people who truly “get it.”

Our sessions are led by qualified coaches, but they are built entirely around you. We can’t promise to fix everything, but we can promise you won’t have to face it alone. 💙
✨ The Details:
What: 4 FREE one-hour weekly group sessions.
Where: Online, from the comfort of your own home.
When: Tuesdays (Lunchtimes), 1pm–2pm.
Dates: 9th, 16th, 23rd, & 30th June 2026.
