Swindon’s birthday project

30/05/2026

Iv made a difficult decision to finish Swindon’s birthday project, this hasn’t come easily.

I want to thank the people for the donations that have been received, the support over the last 2years, the fundraising I have done with my team. I want to thank those who have raised donations for us. The supermarkets and shops for there donations.

I want to thank my team of volunteers, there’s been ups and downs, long long hours spent sorting through donations. The team have helped with social media, the gifting, the deliveries, the collections, messages and emails.

I want to thanks Be Personalised by Hannah for the stickers and support. We will always recommend your business.

I’m gutted this hasn’t worked, I tried my best but it doesn’t always work out.

I have a small amount of gifts left these will be donated from now to August 31st for the upcoming birthday requests. Then all gifts left over will be donated to the 2 schools who are the ones who use our services on a regular basis. I have also supported social services and other charities in the past aswell, I would like to thank everyone who came to us for support.

One day I may re visit this page and start again. This page will stay open but not active.

Thankyou to Chloé, Tracey, Katrina, Jessica and Dotty.

Thankyou again

We loved being apart of Owen’s World Foundation event on Saturday. Meeting lots of lovely new people and of course, getting the chance to introduce ourselves to Mayor of Swindon!

As such a small not for profit, getting our voice out to the wider community is so important. Thank you so much to the Mayor for sharing this and tagging us! We hope to continue supporting as many families locally as possible ❤️

Today we popped in to Tesco to collect a "little tombola donation" that Community Champion Heidi had put together for Swindon's Birthday Project to help raise some much needed funds. Heidi's colleague Jasmine wheeled a trolley out piled high with gifts, it brought a whole new meaning to "Every Little Helps" ❤️ Thank you Tesco Extra Swindon from the bottom of our hearts for an amazing gift!

Big thanks to community champion Becky and supervisor Sue at the West Swindon Asda for generously gifting these lovely items to boost our supplies at Swindon’s Birthday Project, which Cheryl Dixon collected this afternoon. With referrals coming in faster than we can restock our goodies cupboard we are truly thankful for your support ❤️
