Supporting local families,
building community.
Who we are
Stroud District Kids Stuff is a social enterprise at Brimscombe Mill. . We are a part of The Stroud Grace Network, which includes Home Remedy, The Bike Drop, and The Long Table.
Our Vision
To create a circular economy where families in the Stroud District pass us their preloved children’s items to be reused by families in need of support, families who have restricted budgets and families that want to use recycled items to reduce their impact on the environment.
We want to build a sense of belonging, sharing and community so everyone, regardless of circumstances can get the support they need without stigma. Whilst raising the awareness that raising a family does not need to cost the earth.
Our Mission
Our mission and aim is to provide support for the children and their families in our district. We want to empower our staff to improve their current situations by offering flexible working opportunities that support them in their personal lives.

How we build community
At Kid Stuff we believe that children and grown ups all need to socialise to build community.
At the mill you will find our playarea for the under 5’s. This space is for families to use whilst the mill is open.
The playarea is used to host a variety of taster sessions and community events aimed to bring families together.
