Story

πŸŽ„ The Caldecott Christmas Kindness Appeal 2025

Because every child deserves a joyful Christmas.

At The Caldecott Primary and Secondary Schools, some of our pupils come from families experiencing severe financial hardship. For those Christmas can be a particularly difficult time; a season that should be full of warmth and joy can instead bring worry and stress.

Our Christmas Kindness Appeal aims to change that. With your support, we can ensure that these children and their families experience a happy and memorable Christmas.

πŸ’› How your donation makes a difference

On 23rd December, our team will deliver parcels to around 12 of the most in-need families. Each family will receive:

A Christmas food parcel – everything needed for a festive dinner plus extra meals for the Christmas and New Year period.

A bag of gifts for the children in the family – lovingly donated by supporters.

A Β£50 supermarket gift card – so families can buy essentials or treats.

β€œIt’s not just about the presents or the food. It’s about knowing that someone cares, it gives our children hope and happiness when they need it most.”

β€” Parent of a Caldecott pupil

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps make this possible. Together, we can bring kindness, care, and hope to families who are struggling.

🌟 Why your support matters

This initiative does more than provide practical support. It shows families that their community is thinking of them, that they are valued, and that they deserve to enjoy the magic of Christmas. Your generosity ensures that children wake up to presents, families share a festive meal, and everyone feels a little lighter at this time of year.
