Working with Families

Building Blocks Stay and Play and
Baby and Toddler Equipment Loan Service

Building Blocks is a Stay and Play session which meets on Wednesday afternoons in term time from 12 – 2pm.  It takes place here in our café space and is open to all parents/carers with their children.

Alongside this we operate a Baby and Toddler Equipment Loan Service which is available for those who are in receipt of benefits (or who have otherwise been referred to us).  We have highchairs, pushchairs, cots, travel cots and stairgates etc. all available on a loan basis – subject to a returnable deposit.

The Giving Tree

The Giving Tree Project runs each year to provide Christmas presents to those children in Coventry who otherwise wouldn’t receive them.  Last year (2024) we were, yet again, able to help a record number of children and families, providing gifts for 1589 children from 633 families. This was a particularly high number of families and it highlighted to us the particular problems that ongoing high cost of living is causing for many families in Coventry.  This is an amazing opportunity for us to share God’s love with the people of Coventry.

We rely entirely on donations and grants to fund the project each year, and last year we gave out over £25,000 worth of gifts.  If you can help us with this for 2025 then please get in touch anytime throughout the year.  

Alternatively please see the Support Us page on this site for more details of how you can support us as a charity.  Thank you.
