Story

Imagine going to sleep on Christmas Eve without a bed.

Imagine waking up on Christmas morning cold and hungry.

Imagine trying to explain to your children why Santa didn't visit.

Imagine being unable to cook your children a hot meal, let alone a Christmas dinner, because your cooker is broken and you cant afford a new one....

This is the harsh reality for so many local families living without the basics in life. Illness, family breakdown, mental health issues and redundancy can all act as tipping points and create real hardship.

You can give a Christmas gift this year that will change lives and not just for Christmas.

For every £10 donated, you will help access £50 from charitable trusts that are available for local families in need which means you can give an extra special gift this Christmas

£5 donation = £25: You would heat a home for a week

£10 donation = £50: You would feed a family for a week

£25 donation = £125: You would buy a child a bed

£50 donation = £250: You would buy a cooker for a family

£100 donation = £500: You would buy essential items for a family to set up a new home after a period of homelessness

Your Christmas gift really will help to change lives, starting today...

Thank you so very much for giving a special gift this Christmas!
