Data Drop-in
2025-01-29 01:00 - 01:30
In February we will be asking all BBA members to complete a survey. The survey is crucial to our work for the baby bank community. You will receive a summary of the data after the survey too, which may help with your own fundraising and impact reporting activity. These sessions are drop-in events so that you can ask any questions and get support in filling out the survey, if you need it.

Training session: Evidence of need
2024-10-16 10:30 - 11:30
Welcome to the Baby Bank Alliance’s training session: Evidence of need. There are two things that funders care about most: need and impact. In this session we’ll discuss where to go for evidence of the need – e.g. the challenges families are facing, how to communicate this need, and how to talk about your impact.

We’re excited to be joined by Becky Gilbert, Chief Executive and co-founder of Baby Bank Network Bristol. Becky has a brilliant track record when it comes to fundraising – so we’re very lucky to have her join us for this session!
