Events
We run community events that bring local families together to pass on clothes, toys and equipment for growing children - giving every item a longer life whilst easing financial pressure.
Our clothing events take us right across the Scottish Borders into Northumberland and also to East Lothian.

Events at our HQ
Since 2025, we have been based in Chrinside, East Berwickshire. This is where we process and store the many wonderful donations that we receive as well as where we host our weekly 'Volunteer Sessions' and HQ Open Mornings. Our Chirnside base allows us the opportunity to invite the public to us.
See below for details about the various events we host at our Chirnside base.
Our 'Volunteer Mornings' run every Wednesday between 10am -12 noon (with the exception of the school holidays).
Babes in arms are always welcome. Expect a warm and welcoming environment, a hot drink and plenty biscuits!
We love running these sessions and they are invaluable for us as a charity as our donation pile is constantly expanding. These sessions offer those who attend the opportunity to take home any children's clothing or items that they come across whilst sorting.
You can find out more about 'Volunteering' with us here.
