Ilkley half marathon · 16 July 2023

POPI was set up in 2016 to help families in the Keighley area who are struggling to afford items for babies and small children. We provide cots and Moses baskets, prams, high chairs, sterilisers, clothing, nappies and toys from birth to 5. All referrals come from support professionals.

Story

Our lovely founder Samantha will be running Ilkley half marathon on July 16th. It’s Samantha’s first race at this distance and she’s been working hard to build up to it. She’s really looking forward to the challenge and we hope to be able to show her our support by donating where possible (however small!) or just by sharing this page.

With referrals for local vulnerable families doubling over the last few months POPI is having to buy more and more items such as mattresses, safety gates, cots and cotbeds. Each new mattress and safety gate costs £30 and we are now needing to buy most preloved cots and cotbeds which are around £40 each. Samantha would love to raise some funds to help with these costs and we'd love to try help her make that happen!

Times are hard for some of the families we support and we always aim to do all we can to make life a little easier for them.

So if you'd like to support a cause that affects a greater percentage of our community than you probably realise, then please donate. Our amazing donators keep the charity running and we couldn't do it without you! Thank you for your continued generosity.
