POPI is a baby bank based in West Yorkshire who provide items for babies and children up to 5 such as cots, prams, clothes and toys, free of charge to local families in need.

Most of our stock is donated by kind members of the public but they also have an Amazon Wishlist for items that they are struggling to source second-hand.

Referrals to the service come from professionals such as Social Workers, Health Visitors, Family Key Workers and other agencies supporting families. These people work closely with families to assess what they need before making a referral and there are no complicated forms to fill in. Items are collected by the referrer and taken to the family.

By providing these essential items, POPI enables families to keep their children safe, clean and warm. The wonderful toys and books we receive help babies and children reach crucial developmental stages. Becoming a parent is a wonderful time but it has many challenges, particularly for more vulnerable families. Not being able to meet your child’s needs can be very distressing and may put their welfare at risk.

The A&M team in Leeds have chosen this wonderful charity as our charity of the year for 2025 and hope to be able to donate funds which can be used to buy much needed supplies for the charity.
