The R G Carter team delivering the new Bus Hub in Heckmondwike, had the honour of supporting Rainbow Baby Bank with a donation of essential baby items. Rainbow Baby Bank provides new and pre-loved essentials like prams, cots, nappies, baby food and toiletries to families facing incredibly tough circumstances.
Based in Heckmondwike, Rainbow Baby Bank has been a lifeline for families across Kirklees since 2019. With child poverty affecting 34% of children in the borough (according to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation), their work is vital.
Working closely with local professionals, they have supported over 5,000 families to date – all thanks to a dedicated team of 15 volunteers, led by Baby Bank Manager, Sam Cottam.
Sam can be seen above with Site Manager Lee Sorrell, who with Jake Tonge, delivered donations from the Lincoln team.
