I don't think I'll be much help but how nice to read of a teacher who really cares. I'd echo freecycle, or I even wondered about car boot sales, not many on but if you are still stuck at the weekend may be worth a try. Have you tried asking office staff, lunch staff etc, surely someone knows someone with baby stuff just sat there.
Best of luck with your hunt & I hope all works out with your student, off topic but I can remember the teachers who went out of there way for me at school, it means a lot many years later.0 -
sorry can't offer any more advice than what has been offered, but highyl recommend freecyle , local churches and charities . Good luck. i'm sure your get there, xxxx0

Could someone from school get to the local charity shop first thing Tomorrow (Wednesday) ?
Should be enough baby and teenage stuff there to kit them out for a couple of weeks to keep them going until the dust settles......................I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

I've just had a huge sort out of my little girls old clothes and toys. They are all bagged up ready for a charity shop but it they're any use to her, your more than welcome to them.
I live near Ferrybridge so I'm not that far away and happy to meet somewhere with them if needed.0
