Baby Baskets

Sorry, I can't provide a description of this image.

Raising a baby is expensive, and we want to offer hope at the beginning of this journey. Our ‘Baby Baskets’ are the perfect new-born starter pack.

Packed up in a brand-new Moses Basket, you will find all the essentials such as nappies, toiletries, clothes, blankets, wipes, books, toys and more. The Moses Basket itself will be a safe cocoon for your newborn to sleep in. Our baskets are packed with love and are completely free.

It costs £120 to fill a complete Baby Basket, but any contribution towards this initiative is greatly appreciated. Click here to donate. You can also gift a Baby Basket by filling out a form and donating the full £120.

Thank you to W3RT and Watford Borough Council for providing us with a £2,000 grant for our Baby Baskets service. The funding allows us to practically support those facing pregnancy-related challenges.
