Comfort U Bags (Cubs) 🐻🎒

Siân is an ex foster carer for Bristol City Council. She believes that every child deserves to feel a sense of dignity and that every child going into care deserves to pack their belongings in a special bag that they can call their own. Her vision is to provide a proper bag, filled with comfort and essential items, to these brave children in foster care on their journey to find their forever home. She calls this idea Comfort U Bags (CUBs) and in July 2017 set about establishing the initiative with an amazing team! The backpacks are purchased through fundraising and then anyone can ‘adopt a CUB' which involves taking a backpack and filling it using a content list which has been approved by Children Services; although the content is standard and items must be new to preserve the dignity of the recipient, the adopters have the autonomy to choose brands and retailers. Award-winning CUBs became a registered charity in 2022 (1198226).
