For many of us, Christmas is a time for presents, family and festive celebrations. But for the women, men and families in our services, it can be very different. Many have fled traumatic situations involving domestic abuse, leaving behind their homes, belongings and everything familiar. Some arrive at WHAG with nothing but the clothes they are wearing. For parents rebuilding their lives after fleeing abuse, giving their children a Christmas to remember can feel impossible.

This Christmas, we want to help make things a little brighter. We want every child in our services to have a gift to open on Christmas morning, and every adult to feel cared for and remembered.

There are a few ways you can support our Christmas Gift Appeal.

Make a monetary donation

Your donation will help WHAG provide Christmas gifts for children and hampers for adults across our services. The suggested amounts below give an idea of what your contribution could help towards:

• £10 A contribution towards a child’s Christmas gift

• £25 Gifts for 1–2 children or a Christmas hamper for 1 adult

• £50 Gifts for 3–4 children or 2 adult hampers

• £100 Gifts for 6–7 children or 4 adult hampers

• £250+ Gifts for 16–17 children or 10 adult hampers

These amounts are a guide, and every donation, whatever the size, is greatly appreciated.
