We want everyone in our district to be able to enjoy the festive season in a warm home, with food on the table and toys for the kids.

The reality is that too many people will be facing hardship this winter and we want to do all we can to change that. Your support will provide food for those facing hunger, energy vouchers to help residents heat their homes, and household goods like a bed and mattress for those without.

The cost-of-living increases have hit us all but have had a devastating effect on those on low incomes with our foodbanks busier than ever. This year we will have provided more than 9000 food parcels from our 17 weekly foodbanks.

Your donation, however small, will make a difference.

Last year your generosity helped Mrs X and her children at Christmas when she was at her lowest point. “When I have felt like I had nothing or no-one, Horsham Matters has been there. They have saved my family’s Christmas. This is the first Christmas we will be able to enjoy without worry.”

Please help make it a merry Christmas for everyone in our community.
