"I volunteer at the baby bank that helped me"
Kelly Fahy, from Weymouth, volunteers at Family Matters Dorset - she wanted to give back after the Baby Bank helped her.
The Weymouth and Portland Baby Bank supports people by providing clothes, equipment and toys to babies and children of preschool age.
It is one of 75 collection points for the BBC Radio Solent Soapbox Appeal.
Throughout January BBC Radio Solent is helping collect donated toiletries and cleaning products so local community schemes can share them with anyone who needs a little extra support.
You can be part of the BBC Radio Solent Soapbox Appeal by donating unopened items at drop-off points across Hampshire, Dorset, and the Isle of Wight.
