At Christmas, more than any other time, The Salvation Army works tirelessly for people in need. Homeless and hungry people, families facing hardship, victims of domestic abuse and human trafficking, people who are ill or grieving, people who are desperately lonely - we reach out to all of them with unstinting friendship and practical, professional help.

Here's how your donations could transform lives this Christmas...

£19 - Could provide a Christmas box filled with food and modest toys to a family in need.

£28 - could provide a Christmas dinner and the promise of companionship for five lonely older people.

£90 - Could provide support and advice for 10 homeless people in one of our residential centre to help them make a fresh start.

£800 - Could enable all the residents of a safe house to go out for Christmas Dinner and a show, making a memory that will last a lifetime.
