As the festive season draws to a close, we take a moment to reflect on the generosity that has made this time of year so special for the families we support.
At Babyzone Barking and Dagenham and Barnet locations, families enjoyed the thoughtful gifts donated by UBS and the Young Barnet Foundation. The children’s excitement as they opened their presents was heartwarming, and we are grateful to the teams involved, including Simon Marsh and Jessica Hudson, for helping bring this experience to life. These donations helped bring a little extra cheer to the holiday season for families in need.
Another highlight was the festive grotto at the Warrington Youth Zone, which created a joyful atmosphere for families to enjoy together. The excitement was contagious, and it was a wonderful way to experience the magic of the season together.
And the generosity didn’t stop there. We are pleased to share that Babyzone reached its £100,000 target in The Big Give Christmas Challenge. This achievement was made possible thanks to the generosity of our supporters and the match funding provided by The Childhood Trust, which helped maximise the impact of each donation.
We are grateful to all those who have supported Babyzone throughout this season. Your contributions—whether through gifts, fundraising, or volunteering—make a meaningful difference in the lives of the families we serve. We look forward to continuing this work together in the year ahead.
Wishing everyone a joyous and prosperous year ahead.
