Story
Christmas Hope for Youngsters from care.
Last year, through some of the toughest times we have ever experienced, you helped us raise money to make Christmas just a little bit brighter for a remarkable group of young adults. Your kind donations meant we could provide over 250 Hampers, giving some much needed festive cheer, alongside key essentials to help get them through these hard times.
And this Christmas, with your support, we would like to do it again.
With Covid casting it’s ugly shadow, sadly we aren’t able to bring everyone together to celebrate Christmas, family and friendships with a Christmas dinner. Instead we will be sending them a Christmas Hamper packed full of festive hope and cheer.
As the pandemic drags on, so does the isolation and loneliness these youngsters experience on a daily basis. Having endured so much already in what should have been the most joyful times of their lives, it is now more important than ever that we help remind them that they aren’t forgotten, that there are people who care for them; who want to help, who know how special they are and most importantly, that they aren’t alone.
This year the wonderful care teams, who always go above and beyond their role to help make a difference for these inspirational youngsters will again be joining forces with Santa’s Elves to help put a smile on each and every youngsters face.
And to do this WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
Need any more convincing? We discovered just how important the hampers have been when on behalf of the youngsters we were flooded with thanks via the Staffordshire and Derbyshire Care Teams.
It is truly heartbreaking to hear one child say that they wouldn't open the Christmas Card we gave them, until Christmas Day, because it was the only Christmas Card they received!
Any amount you feel you can spare WILL make a big difference.
Finally, we just want to say how much we appreciate your support and the difference you're making to these youngsters lives.
Thank you and Merry Christmas.
