Tessa and Amanda helped out at the Baby Bank this morning. It was a very wet and soggy affair but that didn't dampen their spirits. Tessa got to work sorting hundreds of donated toiletries into welcome bags for their new owners whilst Amanda unpacked, inspected and put away children's clothes.
As ever there were lots of visitors and collections. We were able to help a teenager who has recently moved to the area prepare for their new school, and ensure that prams and mum and baby essentials made their way to those who need them.
Time at the Baby Bank emphasises how anyone can make a difference to the lives of others and the Windsor and Maidenhead GoodGym community is happy to be part of that journey.

Providing essentials to families in extreme need
The Baby Bank collects donations of good quality clothes, equipment, and furniture to help families in extreme need. They provide essentials ranging from everyday items like nappies, and wipes to larger items like cots. They support families beyond the baby stage, for example with school uniform. They aim to give all children the best possible start in life.
