During the month of April, we received 3 amazing donation lots from Childbase and Greenbottoms into our National Warehouse. The donations came as a result of a donation drive in all of the Childbase Partnership Nurseries in the UK. The donations will be processed by our volunteer warehouse team and then sent across the UK to our centres to fulfil their referrals.
Jemma Edwards from Greenbottoms who coordinated the drive said:
‘We were overwhelmed with the variety and volume of donations we received from the Childbase nurseries with their recent drive to support Baby Basics with collections of toiletries. Luckily, we have plenty of room in our vans after we deliver the nurseries their weekly nappies and wipes so we could fit it all in!
The parents and staff at the Childbase nurseries were so generous and all of the wonderful gifted items were brought back to us at Green Bottoms HQ where they were securely boxed and then delivered over the course of 3 weeks to the Baby Basics team in Sheffield. We delivered around 10 boxes per week filled with everything from clothing to toiletries, nappies, wipes, plenty of boxes of chocolates and not to forget a moses basket being some of the most memorable – it was almost as though Christmas had come early! We really enjoy every part of supporting the important work of Baby Basics, we love being involved and are proud of our team members who make it happen.
Thank you so much to the teams at both Childbase Partnerships and Greenbottoms for your continued support of Baby Basics UK.
