Story
In November 2015 Alan Read & Karen Bartlett decided that they would like to spread some festive cheer amongst the poorly children that are unlucky enough to be spending Christmas in Hospital in, Swindon.
We asked friends to help us with this by dressing up as cartoon characters and distribute the gifts amongst the children.
Over the past few years businesses across the town have provided us with gifts that we wrap up and hand out, unfortunately this year we are struggling with this, so we decided to set up this page.
Alan & Karen would really appreciate your support in raising money for this cause so that we can continue to visit the children and watch their smiles when they see their favourite character walk in.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, your support will be very much appreciated.
