9 Year Old Noah Donates Baby Hampers to Poole Foodbank

9 year old Noah and his Mum recently found themselves needing support from Poole Lifecentre and Foodbank. Like so many families, they never imagined this would happen, but circumstances can change in an instant.

Fast forward, and Noah’s family are now back on their feet, and this incredible young boy knew exactly what he wanted to do next: give back.

Using his own pocket money, Noah put together beautiful baby hampers for families visiting Poole Foodbank, to bring comfort, hope, and a little joy to others who might be feeling what his family once felt.
