Pick & Pack (Baby Bank Volunteer)

Little Village

Our Pick and Pack team are based in our lively baby banks in Wembley (Brent). Together we sort, check, and prepare pre-loved items for children. Volunteers create high-quality bundles of toys, clothes, and equipment to gift to families.

What You'll Do:

  • Get to know each child using details we provide to select items they’ll love
  • Create beautiful packages of clothes, toys and books with love and care
  • Check donated pre-loved items, so that they are all of gift quality
  • Organise checked items by gender, age, and type
  • Make smaller gift packs e.g., underwear, socks, bibs and linen
  • Safety check and clean buggies and cots, when needed
  • Greet and thank people arriving with donations of pre-loved items
  • Help loading and unloading gifts and stock for delivery
  • Act in a non-judgmental, inclusive and loving way

 Why You'll Love It:

We are London’s biggest Baby Bank, helping over 7000 children per year. With love, we collect donations of pre-loved items to share with children living in poverty.

Volunteers are at the heart of Little Village and essential to everything we do. From supporting families face to face or on the ‘phone to sorting donations or delivering gifts.

At Little Village, you’ll meet local like-minded people, use your skills, and have fun. Most importantly, you’ll make a real and immediate difference to families facing tough times.

What skills do I need?

What We are Looking For:

  • Attention to detail
  • Able to carry out light manual tasks (or chat with us about reasonable adjustments)
  • A smile and a pair of comfy shoes

About Little Village

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 – so that many more babies and young children have the essential things they need to thrive.  ​Families either visit a Little Village hub, or items are packed with care and delivered to their home. But it doesn’t stop there. We also connect families into a wider network of support, helping them to build and extend their own ‘village’. And we raise our voices for change; sharing the stark realities of too many children’s lives in London. Our values of love, solidarity, thriving and sustainability are at the heart of everything we do.
