Pick & Pack with Little Village

Task Type: Sorting Donations

Charity: Little Village

Little Village makes a big difference to families with babies and young children living in poverty across London. Via our network of baby banks, we pass on loved goods from one family to another – clothes, toys and equipment – so that many more babies and young children have the essential things they need to thrive. Our Pick and Pack team are based in one of our lively baby banks. Together we sort, check, and prepare pre-loved items for children.
Volunteers create high-quality bundles of toys, clothes, and equipment to gift to families. Our Baby Banks are located in Brent (Wembley Central), Camden (Warren Street) and Tooting Broadway. We ask you to join us for a minimum of a 2-hour shift, either weekly or fortnightly.
