This can take two different forms.

AberNecessities
AberNecessities is a local, non-profit charity supporting underprivileged families in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
With 21.8% of children in Aberdeen currently living in poverty, the need for Abernecessities has never been greater. The charity recognises the importance of meeting the basic needs of a child to give them the best start possible.
Over 50 volunteers work to provide families with essential items they need to care for their babies and children, helping alleviate the pressure of bringing up a young family with extremely limited resources. These essentials include everything from nappies and wipes to clothes, shoes and bedding. To cover the gaps, AberNecessities also accept monetary donations to purchase items that are in short supply.
Please consider donating today – just £10 will buy £300 nappies, £20 buys two cartons of formula milk and £50 buys a maternity bag with clothing and toiletries for the mum to be.
Help a young family or mum to be by donating to AberNecessities today.
