Story
For the past decade, the Leeds Care Leavers’ Christmas Dinner has brought together care-experienced young adults aged 18-25 who might otherwise spend Christmas alone. Since its inception, the initiative has supported over 400 young people. And there is a the growing need to maintain this event.
The event is run entirely by volunteers who cook, decorate, wrap and clean to make sure the young people have a magical Christmas to remember.
All the funds raised will go directly towards covering the costs of the Christmas Dinner, which include venue hire, food, presents, and transport for care leavers to ensure their safety.

3 months agoThank you so much for your incredible response to our fundraiser. We know that it's hard to think about Christmas before we've even got Bonfire Night out of the way! But your donation means we can start planning all the food, decorations and presents for this year's guests. You've made some young people very happy!
