We believe that all children should have the same start in life. We take donations of new and pre-loved items for babies and children, make sure they are safe and clean, and rehome them to those in need. Help us respond as quickly as possible to prevent families reaching crisis point.

Impact areas
The rising cost of living, housing instability and financial pressures have left many families struggling to afford essentials for their children such as clothing, cots, buggies and toys. These pressures are particularly acute for those who are care givers, living in temporary accommodation or escaping domestic abuse. Many families face barriers to accessing help, such as stigma, fragmented services, lack of awareness and limited transport.
Stripey Stork acts as a safety net for families in hardship across Surrey and Croydon. Children are referred to us through schools, health services, family centres, foodbanks, and local charities, enabling us to act fast and make sure that our support reaches those most in need. Our vital delivery service has become a lifeline for those who find it harder to travel to our warehouse, and essential as larger items such as beds and buggies have become more in demand.
