Who Are We?

Ten Little Toes was born out of love, set up by a family who know only too well how hard it can be to get by with a house full of small children. With their own four children now teens and young adults, they turned their attention to helping their local community and began running Ten Little Toes out of their home.

The demand for our services is constant and ever-growing, and we see more and more what a lifeline our donations can be for families - those facing financial hardship, temporary homelessness, relationship breakdown, domestic violence, health issues - and the emotional hardship associated with all of these things.

No matter where we work from, Ten Little Toes is always full of love for those we work with.
