First Days
(United Kingdom)
Supported by the MCS Foundation, First Days offers essential assistance to families facing financial hardship. Through their dedicated Family Support Team, they provide emotional, practical, and specialised support. Their initiatives, such as the Baby Bank, School Uniform Centre, and Safe Place to Sleep project, supply vital items, creating a foundation for sustained family support. By addressing immediate needs and actively involving families in finding solutions, they work to prevent ongoing challenges.
First Days believe that every child deserves equal opportunities. By understanding the struggles parents face in accessing crucial resources, they strive to bridge this gap. Research by the Child Poverty Action Group underscores the importance of children feeling equal to their peers, which can lead to better academic performance and career prospects. First Days aims to foster a community where children can thrive academically, enjoy a secure home, and experience a joyful childhood.
