As part of the BIG HELP OUT! and to mark His Majesty The King’s Coronation thousands of organisations across the country are getting together to give us all the chance to help out in our own local communities.
The Buddy Bag Foundation has organised a special celebration to mark the packing of our 50,000th Buddy Bag and to take part in The BIG HELP OUT!
We are delighted to confirm that our event will be attended by the City of Birmingham Lord Lieutenant where volunteers will gather to participate in a Buddy Bag Brigade and pack 180 Buddy Bags to make a difference to children in emergency care in the UK.
