Supporting our mission: recent grant news 

We are pleased to share two recent funding successes that will help us continue supporting families across Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin. 

Baby Bank Alliance 

We are very happy to have received a grant of £2,836.62 of unrestricted funding from the Baby Bank Alliance, through their Development Fund. 

This generous support will help us continue our mission of relieving the financial pressures many families face, ensuring their children have access to the essential items they need. 

About the Baby Bank Alliance 

The Baby Bank Alliance supports and advocates for UK baby banks and families, working to ensure babies and children have the essentials they need to thrive. Being a member helps us raise our profile as a baby bank, access fundraising support, gain free training and advice, and gather data to help demonstrate the impact we’re making in our community. To find out more, please visit https://babybankalliance.org/ 

Marsh Charitable Trust 

We are also delighted to have been supported by the Marsh Charitable Trust with a grant of £500. This will go towards the running costs of our own premises, which are integral to our service and to reaching children in need across Shropshire. We really value this recognition and hope to build a long-standing relationship with the trust. 

About the Marsh Charitable Trust 

The Marsh Charitable Trust provides grants to UK registered charities working in the fields of social welfare, literature, arts and heritage, environmental and animal welfare, and education and training. To find out more, please visit www.marshcharitabletrust.org

Unrestricted funding, and support towards running costs, is some of the most valuable we can receive. It allows us to put money exactly where it’s needed most and helps us keep our services running day to day. We are deeply grateful to both the Baby Bank Alliance and the Marsh Charitable Trust for their generous support and their belief in the work we do.
