We recently started an initiative with local furniture stores for their customers to donate their existing furniture to us when they buy new items. A big thank you to Mr Noble who was the first customer to donate under this scheme and The Cotswold Company for their support. #reuse

Thank you to pupils & staff at St Roberts Catholic Primary School for inviting us to see its Mini Vinnies Toy Sale in action. The children were thrilled to meet Ted. They raised £283.65 to support our beds for children scheme for local children who don’t have a bed of their own.

As a beneficiary, we were delighted to attend The Local Fund celebration evening last week. Their support has enabled us to provide bedding packs on our free beds for children campaign. Two Ridings Community Foundation jdrury photography

Wow! Ted and Lee had the pleasure of being invited into Western Primary School to meet pupils who, through a series of toy sales, raised a staggering £530! We were blown away hearing that 50% of proceeds are being donated to Essential Needs in our fight against child bed poverty.
