We’ve partnered up with The Hygiene Bank and Soap and Glory to deliver care packages to super-mums in the Sevenoaks district.
Around 25 packages have been delivered so far, filled with Soap and Glory products like shower gel, moisturizer and chocolates.
The packages are to say ‘thank you’ to mums who are going above and beyond in these extraordinary times, as well as those who are struggling financially due to the Coronavirus outbreak. 
Sarah's* husband contacted us on Facebook after seeing our post about the packages. He told us he’d recently been put onto the furlough scheme, meaning his income had dropped significantly.
His wife was a care assistant at a local care home, working 12 hour shifts at a time. She’d even offered to live-in at the home to reduce any risk to the residents. When not at work, Sarah had been helping family members and neighbors with their shopping and medication, to make sure they didn’t have to leave their home unnecessarily. She did all this while studying for her higher care qualifications.
Sarah said: “Thank you so much for my gifts. They were so thoughtful and really cheered me up. And thank you to my husband for getting in touch!”
