A grand reception from King's Lynn Rotarians for Baby Basics charity




King's Lynn Rotary Club has made a donation of £1,000 to the charity Baby Basics after Maggie Anderson spoke about its work at a recent meeting.

The charity was founded in Sheffield in 2009 and is now active in many areas, including West Norfolk.

A small group of volunteers meet once per week to provide vulnerable mothers with essential items for new-born babies.

Teenage mothers, asylum seekers and women fleeing domestic violence are referred to the charity by midwives, health visitors and other professionals.

The volunteers assemble donated items such as nappies, wipes, blankets, towels and baby clothes which are placed in moses baskets.

For some mothers these are only essentials that they have for their baby.

The rotary club were so moved by the presentation from Maggie Anderson that they decided to donate £1,000.
