Many thanks to everyone who got involved in the Reverse Advent Calendar this year.

Today 339.02 Kg of food and Christmas treats were delivered in 36 hampers to 25 recipients in the Burghfield, Mortimer Aldermaston and Theale area. (Large families got more than one)

A great effort that would not have been possible without everyone pulling together to get it done so efficiently.

All was over by 11.30am today.

Thanks for all your help and a Happy Christmas to you and all who are loved by you.

The Reverse Advent Calendar team.

A Thankyou and an SOS

Many thanks to everyone who registered for the "Reverse Advent Calendar" 2023. Most parcels will be dropped off at the Methodist Church today and delivered tomorrow.

If there is anyone out there who has a car and some spare time from 10am tomorrow morning, please, please, we could really do with a few extra delivery drivers.

We usually get three or four extra drivers. This year only one family has offered to help.

Please email [email protected] urgently if you think you could help.

Happy Christmas

We now have over 30 parcels promised, to go out locally for Christmas.

Many thanks again to all those who have registered.

This means, unfortunately, that we cannot accept any more parcels for local distribution.

We are sorry to have to say that, although we can take more parcels, they will now have to go into the Greenham Common warehouse for County wide distribution.

12 Christmas hampers promised so far.

A big Thankyou to everyone who has signed up.

Please remember to sign up to bring a bit of Christmas encouragement to those in our community who are struggling to make- ends-meet, at one of the hardest times of the year.
