We are also a babybank and provide baby equipment, nappies, wipes, formula, clothing up to age 12 and also school uniform. We also have a small amount of adult clothing and small selection of households goods, bedding and towels. From Feb 26 we will be providing a free hot meal for children and their families on a Wednesday evening.

At Connection Support, we help people facing some of life’s toughest challenges - from homelessness and mental ill-health to trauma, family breakdowns, and forced displacement. We’ve been supporting people through crises for 30 years, and we now work across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Northampton. Our vision is to prevent homelessness and mental health crises from happening, whilst being there to provide support when they do. Our mission is simple: to help people become safely and sustainably housed and achieve lasting independence. With over 30 services spanning homelessness and housing, mental health, families, young people, and refugee resettlement, we’re working towards a future free from crisis. Across our services we receive referrals from many different sources. Surplus food donations form part of our crisis response and support to many vulnerable families and individuals.
