We work with referral partners who support families (food banks, schools, citizen advice, housing associations, family centres, GP’s and health services, children’s services, domestic abuse support services, the police and any other professional supporting families.)
At Stripey Stork we firstly always try and meet the request using the donated items we already have in stock. We have a monthly wishlist that we use to tell our supporters what we need – this enables us to support families with donations received or we put out an request to our supporters via our Facebook and Twitter page for missing items.
Most importantly, Stripey Stork prides itself on passing on items in great condition. We want the families who receive items from us to feel like they are receiving a gift and not a handout.
