It’s a Family Thing

Our Wonderful Story

Founded by mother-daughter duo, Steph Talbot & Emily Petts, Alice Charity was born in 2011 in response to the lack of available support for disadvantaged, local families. Steph and Emily were on a mission to make sure the most vulnerable families across Stoke and Newcastle had access to the kind of unconditional love and support they had received from their family. And it’s this ethos of unconditional love and kindness that beats at the heart of Alice.

From their first free, weekly baby and toddler group in Clayton, Steph and Emily were able to identify a few local families who desperately needed some emotional support and help with essential items for their homes. And as demand grew for Alice’s services, both directly from local families and from local agencies, the charity opened the doors to its first office at Silverdale Enterprise Centre in 2013 and began supporting many local families in many ways.
