Fareham Christmas Day Lunch 2020

Organised by Community First

Can you help us make Christmas Day special for those who will find themselves alone? This year we cannot bring everyone together for a shared meal, but with your support, we can provide members of our community with some company and festive cheer.

Story

Each year for the last 10 years Fareham Christmas Day Lunch has been held on Christmas Day for anyone in Fareham who has found themselves alone at Christmas.  It is usually held in the church hall of St John's Church in Redlands Lane.  Last year we had 100 guests and delivered meals to 7 people who could not attend in person.

  We are unable to offer Christmas Lunch in the same way this year due to the current restrictions but, despite the difficult circumstances, we are still planning to make Christmas special for our Fareham guests. On Christmas Day this year, we will be offering a doorstep Christmas visit from our volunteers who will also deliver a pre- cooked Christmas meal and a Christmas hamper directly to those members of the community who find themselves alone.

More people than usual will be isolated and spending Christmas away from any loved ones this year. With your support, we can provide a safely distanced visit and some festive cheer to as many people as possible.
