We launched our Christmas Appeal at the start of November and what an adventure it had been.

This Christmas our Wishing Tree Appeal supported 891 children and young people in kinship care and 164 youngsters in the community.

This Christmas our Kindness Wishing Appeal supported 179 older/vulnerable people in the community.

This Christmas our Christmas Hamper Appeal supported 91 families.

This Christmas our Special Cases Appeal supported 25 families in respect of 62 children.

We also distributed vouchers to 55 families in respect of 104 children in the community.

What an achievement for us all.

Thank you kind strangers, customers and supporters for making it happen.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our staff and volunteers and the countless people behind the scenes who ran in different directions into the early hours of the morning to make this Christmas an extra special one. We couldn’t have asked for better - THANK YOU!

Santa will be arriving soon and so with that in mind - Have a wonderful Christmas!
