Look for a long hedge and layby with the 'R Palmer & Sons' sign and the Ely Baby Bank orange flag. Turn into the driveway and park on the field. 

Donating baby items?

We are currently closed. We will reopen on Thursday 5th September. Please do not leave donations at the baby bank during this time.

Donations can be dropped off any time Monday to Saturday. All items should be clean, in very good condition, and come from a smoke free home. Our wishlist shows the items we need and what we cannot take. 

When dropping off donations, please drive to the very end of the driveway where you will find our donation point, behind the black metal gate. If you are leaving items when we are open to visitors, there is a designated drop-off point by the entrance.

Please don't take any items from the donation point. This area is for drop-offs only. 

Facilities

There is plenty of off-road car parking at the Baby Bank.

We have toilets with baby changing facilities, a play area for young children, and a café which is open on Thursdays. 

We can also provide a wheelchair for anyone needing support when accessing and getting around the Baby Bank.
