Even though Christmas is still far away this Baby Bank in Eastbourne is ready with 200 bundles
Baby Bank and Beyond CIC will be making its deliveries across East Sussex including Eastbourne with children’s Christmas presants.
The Hellingly-based charity is run by a small number of volunteers but has managed to collect 200 bundles for children and families who most need the extra support this Christmas.
The charity will start making deliveries on November 30 till December 16. Deliveries will be made Eastbourne, Heathfield, Ninfield and Lewes.
Nicky, who runs the charity said: “This Christmas, we’ll be providing individually packed bags filled with new toys, books, games, craft activities and festive treats for local children who might otherwise receive very little.
“These are children whose families are going through difficult times. Perhaps their parents are unwell and have been unable to work or circumstances mean they’re spending Christmas in temporary accommodation or a refuge.
“Whatever the reason, we’d like to make Christmas a little brighter for them. But it takes a community to make this happen.
“If you’re able to donate something, however small, please drop it into one of our collection points between now and Friday 11th December.”
