The charity said figures from the Baby Bank Alliance showed baby banks in the UK supported more than 400,000 children in 2025.
In the same year, Faces BabyBank handed out 36,400 items of children’s clothing, 54,080 nappies, 536 tubs of formula milk, 298 newborn starter packs and 3,768 books and toys.
It has also given cots, Moses baskets, prams, highchairs, bedding, baby baths and other essentials.
It said it relies on donations and always needs good quality goods or financial donations to purchase essential items when stock is unavailable.
The charity said more parents in work were “still unable to afford essential items because wages are not keeping pace with household costs”.
