Buggies needed for struggling parents

Recommended Posts

Hello


I am part of the team running the BabyBank in Camberwell and we give second hand items away to local parents who are struggling to meet the costs of having a baby or young child. Many of the families who use the BabyBank are destitute and are referred by health visitors/midwives.


We currently have several mums waiting for a buggy suitable for new borns or toddlers. Can you help?


You can drop them at our base in Camberwell on Tues/Wed/Fri mornings or Wed evening. Please see the poster attached for more information!


Thanks, Kate

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
