02 Activities

What the charity does

Little Village makes a big difference to families with babies and young children living in poverty across London. Via our network of baby banks we pass on loved goods from one family to another (clothes, toys and equipment). Families either visit a Little Village hub, or items are packed with care and delivered to their home. We also connect families into a wider network of support.
