Little Village (charity)
Little Village is an English charity, which operates "baby banks" to provide clothes, toys, and equipment for babies and young children aged 0 to 5 years in London. Goods are donated mostly by individuals, and parents in need can collect or be sent a "bundle" of items for each child in the household including clothing, toys, and toiletries, as well as bigger equipment such as beds and pushchairs. Families can return every 3 months to receive material support for a child, until the child is 5 years old. Little Village was founded by Sophia Parker in 2016 to help communities to share baby equipment locally. It is one of the four charities to which the Duke and Duchess of Sussex suggested people might donate instead of sending gifts for their newborn baby in 2019.
