Wip Running Club, would like to invite you to support The Buddy Bag Foundation.
The Buddy bag foundation was created in response to the rising number of children who enter emergency care after fleeing violent situations at home.
A Buddy Bag is a backpack that contains all the essential items a child needs.
They include toiletries, pyjamas, socks and underwear, in addition to comfort items such as a book and a teddy bear.
A Buddy Bag is something a child can call their own, no matter where they go.
Buddy Bags are tailored to suit babies, children and young people according to age groups and gender.
Giving a buddy bag, is giving sense of safety and security into a child’s life during a traumatic time and one of the first steps to recovery. By providing these children with a few essential items, the mission is to help make the transition into emergency care a little easier.
There motto is that 100% of money we raise will do directly to the children, every £25 raised will pay for a bag for a child.
