Each December volunteers come together to transform gathered goods, raised funds and items donated from local companies into baskets of food, presents and luxury items for families and individuals in need at Christmas.

They then deliver these baskets to the local community members that have been nominated throughout the year.

Hundreds of people will receive a basket, with a personalised gift and a 'pass it on' message from the community.

People have said it has given them hope to carry on!

Help to spread some very special festive cheer and real HOPE and LOVE in the true spirit of Christmas by making a donation or getting involved.

This year 'packing day' is on Friday 8th December at 5pm and Saturday 9th December at The Iona School, Sneinton, Notts. For further information and to sign up visit the Facebook page @basketbrigadenottingham
