She said a successor will take over the diaper bank, but a reopening date remains to be determined. Mohamed Ould Ramoul, the father of an eight-month-old girl, said the diaper bank provides him with "crucial peace of mind" when his family's budget gets tight. O'Regan said she started to feel overwhelmed by a growing demand, making it hard to balance the volunteer service with her family role. Lydia O'Regan turned her bedroom into the Halifax Diaper Bank, where she sorts donations and gets them ready for families in need. She would love to lead the diaper bank in its growth, she said, but it's beyond her reach at the moment.
