Sadly the building where Baby Basics Billericay operates had a fire this week. Everyone is safe but they need to replace their stock asap to keep supporting families. If you can please support them by buying something from their Amazon wishlist here https://t.co/TFyxCPQpRK

Jane (our centre leader), was invited to speak to ‘The Outwood Common Tenants and Residents Group’ about the work of Baby Basics in their local community. We feel very honoured to be doing all of this for those who need a little boost right now. (3/3)

Which will go far to help so many ladies expecting a baby soon. 💙 We were really pleased to be able to send out this beautiful bundle of goodies to an expectant mum this morning via their health visitor. 💗 As if that wasn’t exciting enough..(2/3)

We had such a busy morning at Baby Basics Billericay today! 💗 Firstly, we are so grateful to @Waitrose and specifically, Julie Fiske (the Waitrose Billericay Community Lead), who really champions our small project. Today, they gave us a cheque for £500 (1/3)

Infact we can’t accept anymore knitted items or blankets. We just don’t have enough space to store them. Thank you for understanding.

We just want to thank those of you who donated this week for following our new guidance and bringing your donations already washed and pre sorted by items and sizes! It made life so much simpler for our volunteers. 🥰
