Every year, The Cowshed helps thousands of children who would not otherwise receive Christmas presents. For the last few years, Saltshaker has provided The Cowshed with gift food hampers to share with families in our area experiencing hardship at Christmas. Last year, we provided 1,500 hampers - enough to ensure that every family that The Cowshed supported at Christmas was able to receive this gift - and we hope to match that figure this year. The hampers will be delivered to families by The Cowshed alongside their Christmas Present appeal which in 2025 supported more than 3,000 children: read The Cowshed 2025 Christmas Impact Report and see the video diary of The Saltshaker 2025 Hamper Packing Project.
