    ‘Newborn Bundles’ at New Beginnings … can you help?

    What does New Beginnings do?

    We provide, through registered referral agencies, ‘Newborn Bundles’ for the most vulnerable mothers in our communities. These generally consist of a Moses Basket filled with toiletries and clothing for the first six weeks or so of a new baby’s life, gifted to families in need. We operate on donations from the public, and are volunteer led.

    About us……..

    New Beginnings provides Moses Basket packs for the most vulnerable mothers and their new babies in our community. To safeguard the recipients of our New Beginnings packs we do not meet the end user but take referrals from midwives, health visitors and other agency workers. The packs are then taken out to the families by the person who has made the referral.

    Our New Beginnings Baby Bundles packs contain a Moses Basket filled with clothing, toiletries and essential equipment gifted to families in need.

    Most of the contents of our packs are donated by our generous community. We process the donations as they come in and pack up lovely parcels of Moses Basket, clothes, toiletries and other essential items ready to be taken out as gifts to families in real need. We believe that for some of our families this may be the nicest thing that they have ever received and take pride in making our newborn bundles the very best we can.

    At present we are only able to supply starter packs to women in the Sandwell & West Birmingham area due to storage and the fact our items are donated.

    Referrals are made via the help of midwives, health visitors and other professional groups, who work directly with these families. Our New Beginnings volunteers then lovingly collect sort and package a Moses Basket newborn bundle of clothing, toiletries, and essential baby equipment as an attractive gift to the new mothers, who then receive the gift hopefully about a month before the due date.

    Please visit the website: New Beginnings Baby Bundles | New Beginnings Com (newbeginningscommunity.co.uk) to find out how you can help, including what you can donate and where you can donate it.
