Story
Little Helping Hands is a local voluntary group based just outside of York, helping to provide essential equipment and clothing to children aged 0 - 5, from families who have been identified as needing that extra bit of help.
I decided to set up this charitable group as I wanted to help my local community. I know that the past year has been incredibly hard for lots of people; jobs have been lost and unemployment is at an all-time high. I had recently become a new mummy, and soon realised I had bags of clothes and toys that she no longer needed. I wanted to help those families who were struggling by donating what I had and soon found there was a real need for support. That is when Little Helping Hands was born.
Through the items that are donated from the general public, we create care packages of essential baby and children supplies. These can range from clothing to nappies, equipment to toys. Our packages are then distributed to families within the area of York and Selby who have been identified as needing that extra bit of help.
The funds raised will be used for the following:
- There may be times we need to buy new equipment or clothing for a referral, as we simply do not have the item in our catalogue at the time it is needed.
- The daily running costs that keep us going.
Any donations, no matter how big or small, really do make a difference in someone's life and we are extremely grateful for all your support.
