Story
The Jolly family is a fortunate one. Not for the material possesions or the exotic and exciting adventures we take part in throughout the year, but because for the most part we are all blessed with good health and will be able to spend this festive season at home with our families and loved ones. Sadly for hundreds of children in the UK this year, that is simply not the case.
Unfortunately we cannot magically cure these children or get them home for the festive season but what we can do is our little to bit to help put a smile on their faces and make their situation a little more bearable by spreading a bit of festive spirit.
This year we will be raising money to support gift buying for two charitable causes the Evelina London Children's Hospital and the Alexandra Children's Hospital in Brighton all of the money raised will be split 50 / 50 between the two charities and used in the following ways.
Evelina London Children's Hospital:
Supporting their Smiles for christmas campaign. Some of the money raised will be used to purchase gifts for the children themselves, some of the money raised will be used to purchase equipment for the children's hospital itself, ensuring our support not only benefits the children currently in care this christmas but also for children in Evelina's care throughout the year and far into their future
All of the gifts will be purchased as requested via Evelina's dedicated 'Smiles for Christmas' online gift buying portal which can be viewed here https://www.christmassmiles.org.uk
Alexandra Children's Hospital:
We will be using their half of the money raised to physically go out and purchase the gifts ourselves with guidance from a list provided to us by the Hospital. We will then be hand delivering the gifts on the very same day, to the Play team at the hospital who will then distribute the gifts on our behalf.
We have conservatively set this years target at £2000 but we're sure if we all get behind this as a community then we can easily reach and exceed that.
