We are a charity supporting the families of 0-5's in Bicester and Surrounding Villages. We support by redistributing clothing and equipment in good condition from other families to families in need. Referrals are given out to us by health professionals, charities, schools and any agency that knows of a family in need. We fundraise also in order to top up stocks and rent a base for our stocks.
