Baby Box Volunteer

The Scot Baby Box Appeal is a small registered charity that started when the war broke out in Ukraine 4 years ago. We initially started getting baby boxes back from new mums in Scotland who were no longer using the one they were given by the Scottish Government. We repacked them with all mum and baby essentials and shipped them out to Ukraine. Since then we’ve sent out over 20,000 baby boxes, more than 3,000 toddler boxes as well as any other aid that is required and we are able to provide.
The Scot Baby Box Appeal are currently looking for new volunteers to join team based at Callendar Business Park, Falkirk.

*Sorting through new donations
