Our history

Recognising a need to support vulnerable families in Bradford, founder Vickie initially set up Bradford Baby Bank from her home in late 2017.

With no paid employees, we rely solely on volunteers to source, sort and distribute items needed by vulnerable families across the Bradford District.

Our ability to help relieve some of the impacts of poverty is reliant on the generosity and kindness of others. Since we began, our referral rate has rocketed and our impact across Bradford is significant.
