June Newsletter
The June 2025 BN Bulletin highlights a vibrant month for Bare Necessities Toiletry Bank, showcasing community engagement and charitable initiatives. The fundraiser gig in May, featuring free entertainment from The Crows and DJ Moo, raised £4,000 to combat hygiene poverty. Meanwhile, Team Tuesday was busy distributing 165 Father’s Day gifts to children via six charities and schools, most crafted by their Sewing Bees. Prom Packs were also a major focus, with 200 kits containing hygiene essentials delivered to schools and youth centres, thanks to support from ambassador Tiffany at Amelia Knight.

We were delighted to welcome Rayburn Trading to our Team Tuesday this week.
Rayburn Trading, the UK’s leading independent wholesaler, supplies premium FMGC products and has been a valued partner to Bare Necessities for over six years. With their office right on our doorstep, it was the perfect opportunity for a catch-up.

Their representative, Jamie Duffy, received a warm Bare Necessities welcome and experienced Team Tuesday in full action, as our volunteers packed essential toiletry kits ready for distribution. This was Jamie’s first opportunity to see our work up close and gain a deeper understanding of how the products we source in bulk from Rayburn are transformed into vital support for the communities and charities we serve.

Last year, we had the privilege of visiting Rayburn’s headquarters, including a tour of their distribution warehouse. Seeing first-hand where our orders are stored and dispatched gave us valuable insight into the scale and efficiency behind their operations.


Moments like these highlight the strength of our partnership and the shared commitment to making a tangible difference. We welcome opportunities to work with corporate partners who share our mission, so if your organisation is interested in supporting Bare Necessities, please get in touch via our Contact Page.
A huge thank you to Jamie for taking the time to visit us and for continuing to support our work. We look forward to many more years of collaboration.
Help us end hygiene poverty for good.
What can you do?
