Support services for parents inundated with pleas for help
Hi neighbours, Support services for parents have been inundated with pleas for help from struggling families in need of essential items - like nappies, and sanitary products - during coronavirus lockdown.
Auckland-based charity The Mums' Clique is getting more than 100 requests per day for its essential items packs and Plunket has noted more babies are developing wounds from being left in nappies for long periods because their parents can’t afford to buy more.
