"Be a Star - Christmas 2026" is our chance to bring hope, comfort, and dignity to people in our community who need it most.

Each year, through our Be a Star Christmas Appeal, Blackpool Salvation Army provides gifts for children, support for those who are alone, and festive food parcels or Christmas meals for people facing hardship. Working in partnership with local schools, social services, and other agencies, we help ensure that children wake up to gifts on Christmas morning, families can enjoy a Christmas meal with dignity and hope, and older people and vulnerable individuals experience companionship and connection during the festive season.

What Your Fundraising Could Do:

£20 - could contribute towards a food parcel to feed a hungry family.

£50 - could provide Christmas vouchers for 4 teenagers.

£168 - could provide Christmas dinner and companionship for 22 people

£360 - could contribute towards 18 boxes of groceries so families struggling in poverty can share a Christmas meal.

Please give what you can today. Your support will help us to share gifts, meals, and care, and ensure that no one in our community feels alone at Christmas.
