Report written by Carol Keys

Share the love

Four GoodGymers — Carol, Sheila, Helen, and new recruit Charlotte — lent a helping hand at the Baby Bank today. Although the bank was officially closed and not accepting public donations, quite a few still arrived, and their generous contributions were gratefully received.

With no corporate volunteers on site, it was down to the GoodGym crew to tackle the mountain of pre-sorted clothes needing a second check. Our volunteers sifted through piles of donated items, carefully sorting them into boxes ready for referrals, or into overflow bags when the boxes were full.

When we arrived, the tables were piled high — but thanks to everyone’s teamwork and determination, we left with most of them cleared. A productive and satisfying session!

Providing essentials to families in extreme need

The Baby Bank collects donations of good quality clothes, equipment, and furniture to help families in extreme need. They provide essentials ranging from everyday items like nappies, and wipes to larger items like cots. They support families beyond the baby stage, for example with school uniform. They aim to give all children the best possible start in life.
