Christmas should be about more than survival. But for one in three local children whose families struggle to make ends meet, it is just that.

We want to ensure all children can join in the fun and festivities by helping thousands of families in Manchester and Salford with the expense of the season. With your help we can provide food to help families with the costs of the holidays, and new toys for the children to open on Christmas Day.

Last Christmas we supported over 2,000 families and 4,500 children thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Your donation will help us to purchase toys and gifts for older children, for who we struggle to get enough donations for. It will also help us to provide Christmas events for children to join in the festive fun, like any other child.

Thank you for your support this Christmas time
