Give A Gift Southampton

🎅🎁 Another sensational day delivering gifts to the patients and their siblings Southampton Children’s Hospital

A HUGE thankyou to the staff who helped us today, especially the lovely Janet who was the perfect elf! (Big thanks to her lovely Grandsons who let us borrow her for the day)

Special thanks to the magnificent Play Team at the hospital who help us to organise the day!!

We would like to say how grateful we are that we are allowed to visit the hospital to spread Christmas joy and how thankful we are to everyone who has donated gifts or funds to enable us to make this year as special as it has been.

Being in hospital over the festive season is challenging for even the strongest of people so bringing some much needed happiness and a quick break from the day-to-day is so important for the well being of all the patients and siblings.

We wouldn't have been able to do this without the support we have from you guys!!

Merry Christmas!!
