Christmas can be a stressful time for anyone - did you forget to get anyone a gift? Which family members are you going to invite for lunch? Is the turkey actually cooked?!

Imagine though being a young person and knowing that it might be the last Christmas you get to spend with your mum. The last time you decorate the tree together. The last time you argue over whether the 80s Band Aid is better than the 00s version (answer: yes, it is).

Hope is here to support young people who have a family member with a life threatening illness, whatever the outcome for the patient, whatever time of year it is. But we need your help.

We can't do it alone. We need your festive fundraising to support those young people who know that next year there will be one less card to write, one less gift to wrap and one less loved one at Christmas dinner.

Could you hold a Christmas jumper or hat day at work?

What about making a donation instead of sending cards?

Or could your school have a festive cake sale?

I know, if you've got a restaurant could you donate £1 from every Christmas dinner?

There are hundreds of ways you can help us this Christmas. However you choose to, please help us let a young person in a horrible situation know that we are here for them.

Help us give a little Ho Ho Hope this Christmas.
