Wrexham baby bank marks five years of supporting vulnerable families

A Wrexham baby bank has marked five years of supporting vulnerable expectant mothers — delivering nearly 375 hampers of essential items since it was set up.

Baby Basics Wrexham, now based at Caia Park Partnership, opened on February 21, 2021 after being founded by local mum Sarah Davies and a team from Christ Church Wrexham.

It started in a single rented room at the Priory Centre, producing 35 hampers in its first year from clothing collected from friends and colleagues. Its first referrals came from a Flying Start midwife, Wrexham Foodbank, the British Red Cross and Wrexham County Borough Council’s Family Aid Team.

Five years on, the organisation has helped more than 60 referral partners and has distributed almost 375 hampers to families across the area.
