FAMILIES

We help families experiencing crisis by giving them something to celebrate with - a hamper filled with food and seasonal goodies. We believe that families are the foundation of our society and that protecting and nurturing those most at risk will help us all.

We were struggling because of benefits and bills and not being able to get out of the house to do the shopping. I’m a carer for my mum so life is tough. It made my Christmas when it arrived. It was huge! I was just expecting a few bits and bobs but it was Christmas all at once. I could feel my worries go away for a little while because I knew that we could be like everyone else and spend Christmas together having a proper Christmas with proper food.

Thank you so much for the hamper. It contained a Christmas that we would never have had. We were absolutely amazed by the generosity of everyone involved. It helped us to have a proper Christmas that we could never have afforded.

The looks on the kids’ faces said it all to me and made me cry and made everything more bearable.
