Baby Bags for Families
Mothers' Union members in the diocese of West Yorkshire & The Dales (Ripon & Leeds) volunteer in some of the local prisons, eg three days a week at the crèche at Wealstun Prison, to provide support in the visits area and to be a friendly face to visitors.
In addition members supply 'Baby Bags' containing items for a new baby such as toiletries and knitted items in neutral colours, with a special knitted teddy or pram blanket. These are given to new mums at the end of the Pregnancy Project sessions at the Jigsaw Visitor Centre.
