She said: “Being a parent myself I have seen the rise in cost for nappies, wipes and sanitary products.

“My aim from the start was to help families during the time people may need it the most.”

Remo’s, in Fulwood Road, Broomhill, and Birdhouse Café, in Sidney Street in the city centre, also supply products for families in need.
