Testimonial

The mum was “blown away” by the clothes, and holding back tears. It was lovely for me to be able to hand over the clothes, particularly as things have been very difficult since her change of circumstance. She also commented on how beautiful the clothes smelled. This is a lady who has extremely high personal hygiene standards. Thank you again; the clothes you provide are certainly “clothes with dignity”

A quick email to say a very big THANK YOU for the lovely clothes you provided for two of my service users’ children. Your support, high standard and efficient service is very valuable to us and much appreciated. Many thanks.

Social Worker

A huge thank you for the work you do. Our families have been delighted with the clothes saying “I got a whole outfit!” and “My son loves his slippers and trainers so much he won’t take them off once they are on his feet!”

Kids Love Clothes is a valuable and much needed resource for the HV service to access. I have used it on numerous occasions for vulnerable families on my caseload. Many of the families struggle financially, but receiving clothing enables payment of essential bills ie food/heating.

Kids Love Clothes really does live up to its name, as children love receiving the bags of good quality clothing. I remember in particular a 3year old little girl who managed to don 4 outfits (one on top of the other) within 5 minutes, because she was so excited and didn’t know which one she liked best!

Health Visitor

Thank you very much for the beautiful quality clothing, the children’s mum was thrilled with them and she could not wait to show her son his new clothes when he came home from school. So thank you once again for providing this wonderful service.
