Little Buddies helped me so much through the tough first stages of being a new Mum, just knowing that you can sit down and eat without worrying about the noise your little one is making or be self conscious if you're feeding your baby out in public for the first time. The owner Bev and her staff are amazing and have become more like friends over the time I've been going with my little boys. Being able to go somewhere thats safe, fun and inviting when youve got a new baby and children is essential for many families. Especially the mental heath of mother's and for the well being of children, being able to run around and let off a little steam. It is also very important for babies and children to have interaction with other children for social skills and personal development and to lose play centres would have a detrimental effect on that! Little Buddies have already had to shut for 6 months this year and now Greater Manchester has been placed into tier 3 so are facing an uncertain future. Even with the business help handed out by the government they are still expected to pay a crippling rent that there overseas landlord has either been unwilling or unable to negotiate on.
By raising this money i hope to make sure that other mothers, fathers and families get to carry on enjoying the benefits that this company offers!
I've chosen £3000 to raise as this will cover the amount of one month's rent whilst being forced to remain closed!
