Yorkshire-based baby bank sees sharp rise in referrals

Volunteers at a baby bank have said they have seen a 10-fold increase in referrals since opening two years ago.

The Yorkshire-based Tiny Hands baby bank collects and hands out clothes, blankets, toiletries, equipment and toys to families experiencing hardship.

Rachel Hodgson, from Tiny Hands, said many people, including those in work, were struggling to make ends meet.
