Sleep Tight
A safe place to sleep should be a basic right for every child. But the reality for many families facing poverty or living in cramped, unsuitable or temporary accommodation, essentials like Moses baskets, cots, baby sleeping bags, pyjamas or bedding are out of reach. By supporting our Sleep Tight appeal, you could help provide the essentials a child needs for the comfortable, safe night’s sleep that they deserve.

What we need
Please help us stock our baby banks with these much-needed sleep essentials. Your donations will help ensure more babies and young children aged 0-5 years old have the best possible start in life. Don’t have any of these pre-loved essentials to pass on? By making a donation you could help pay for new items such as a fresh mattress for a toddler’s cot bed.
Please note, we’re not unable to accept used mattresses, pillows or duvets. Thank you so much for supporting Sleep Tight.

A parents story...
“My favourite bit was the Moses basket because like most Mum’s I just wanted my child to have a safe, cosy and lovely place to sleep.”
