THE NEST PROJECT
We give away free essential clothing, equipment and toiletries to families struggling financially in BANES with children under the age of 5. We work like a baby bank, accepting both referrals from professionals and self-referrals. We offer collection or delivery options within a certain area. We offer 'new mum consultations' to help prepare expectant mother's for their new arrival.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a net surplus of £80,985 for the year ended 31 August 2025, with total unrestricted reserves of £62,957. Per the trustees' report, these reserves are significantly above the stated policy target of £15,000, providing a buffer against unforeseen costs. The trustees consider this higher level of reserves prudent given the charity's newly established status and ongoing development of income streams.
