We also run a Baby Box project where we give Boxes that baby can sleep in to mums-to-be in need, we fill the boxes with essential items such as nappies, clothes, blankets etc to ensure the baby has everything that is needed for the first few weeks of life as well as a safe place to sleep. The boxes are British made, comply with all safety measures and come with a brand new mattress. We run two mother & baby charity shops which fund over 70% of our required income but we have had to close both shops due to the coronavirus outbreak.
