“Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things break, and all things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.”

How does a 73 year old, newly retired foster carer fill her days? Set up a new Baby Basics center!!!!!! That’s me, and like my 34 years of fostering, I will never regret it. It has taken just 11 months from my first thoughts, to sending out our 22nd basket, having a storeroom full of donations, having a healthy Baby Basics Newark bank balance, and a team of enthusiastic supporters. The most important thing is that there are 22 new mums who have been given dignity when they go into hospital to have their baby, taking with them everything they need for the birth, being no different to any other mum.
