Everyone should have the necessities when bringing a new life into the world.
We give baby essentials to families where a parent is a survivor of domestic abuse, sexual exploitation or sexual assault. Every family is referred to us by the caseworker supporting them.
Practical gifts, given with love and compassion
A parent leaving an abusive home often leaves with almost nothing, and no statutory service provides a cot, a pushchair or a car seat. We do. A caseworker tells us what a family needs, and we do our best to get it to them.
Referred by the people who know
A caseworker refers a family
Police, NHS, refuges, Migrant Help and other trusted partners refer the families they support.
They tell us what's needed
The specific things that family doesn't have, from a moses basket to a car seat.
We provide it, free
We check, prepare and hand over each item with care, at no cost to the family.
The things a new baby needs
Mostly good-quality second-hand items, with some bought new. Always what a family actually needs.
- Pushchairs
- Moses baskets
- Cots & cot mattresses
- High chairs
- Car seats
- Breast pumps

- Toiletries
