Hi there,
I thought I would reply to everyone as you may not know about this:
If you need things like toys etc, it is worth joining the Southwark
Freecyle group - there - as the name might suggest - to give/get stuff
for free, no strings. lots of baby stuff offered/wanted on there, and
I think its a great idea...
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/southwark-freecycle/
"The Freecycle Network® is made up of many individual groups across
the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people
who are giving ( getting) stuff for free in their own towns. Each
local group is moderated by a local volunteer (them's good people).
Membership is free."
all best
Jessica
