The Buddy Bag Foundation packs 60,000th Buddy Bag

Today, we celebrate a monumental milestone: packing our 60,000th Buddy Bag for children who’ve fled domestic abuse!

Thank you to EVERYONE who has supported us along this incredible journey. Your generosity has made a huge impact across the UK! From our humble beginnings in 2015 to receiving the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, and now with our own BBF HQ, the Buddy Bag Foundation’s journey is truly inspiring.

Lord Lieutenant Sir John Crabtree send the Buddy Bag Foundation this message of congratulations

Celebrating 60,000 Buddy Bags

Packing 60,000 Buddy Bags not only provides essential items but also restores a sense of security to children in emergency care. It’s heart-warming to see the impact of your ‘Bags of Love’ on over 325 Women’s Refuge Centres.

Thank you to Dr Hilary Jones MBE for sending The Buddy Bag Foundation this message.

A special shout-out to our nearly 5,000 volunteers whose dedication is truly commendable. 🌟 We couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank you, once again, for being a part of our mission to bring comfort and hope to those who need it most. Together, we’re changing lives! Here’s to even more buddy bags being packed and sent to children in emergency care across the UK!
