Things have been busy at Bairnecessities HQ!
In preparation for our renovations, our volunteers have been working hard to remove all the old fixtures and fittings. A huge thanks also goes out to Mintlaw Men’s Shed who came and made a massive dent in removing some of the old walls back to brick.
Go check out out Facebook page- Here’s Helen giving a tour of the progress we’ve made so far!
Happy March everyone!
The sun is out and it finally feels like Spring is around the corner! Since Spring is a time for new beginnings and shaking off the winter blues- perhaps you are looking for a new experience or to get more involved in the local community?
Why not come and volunteer with us! We have some new volunteer positions we are looking to fill which you can check out on our Volunteer page here
If you are interested in any of these positions, or would like to know more about volunteering with us, please contact us on volunteers@bairnecessities.co.uk
It’s official- we finally have the keys to our new building!
After a lot of hard work, our volunteer board have completed the transfer of our new building from Aberdeenshire Council. We have big plans for our new HQ in Maud and before we can move in we have a lot of renovation work to do.
Helen has filmed a little ‘before’ video of how everything is looking at the moment, and talks about what we plan to do to, so if you missed that you can check it out here
There is lots to do and we plan on taking you on this journey with us so, watch this space!
Bairnecessities Team
In December, our monthly wishlist was closed. Instead we decided to do a reverse advent calendar. This was a huge success with many businesses/ work places taking part. Items on our list included: hats & gloves, toiletries, nappies and other essentials!
Since Bairnecessities began we had been working between 3 shipping containers. This restricted how many items we could keep in stock due to storage space.
In November 2023, we moved across the road to a huge warehouse. This has been a great benefit for Bairnecessities, allowing our stock intake to increase, volunteers can attend more frequently and allow a brand new delivery service working in partnership with NERVS.
Our giftlist is working really well at the moment, lots if donations coming in which are in high demand! We are delighted with this! THANK YOU!!
