Everyone is welcome to come along. There will be a charity presentation and raffle on the night. Come and get Christmassy with us!

Thank you to Hoburne Dental Practice for being our sponsor for this event, and their generous donation of £750.00

Another huge shout out to Christchurch Living Advent Calendar and Loch & Quay for their support. These events take so much preparation and planning each year, and especially for small charities like ours, have such a positive impact on our fundraising and also on our charity awareness locally.

A massive thank you to Ferndown Forest Golf Club for raising £2,040.00 at their Pro AM Event. This is an amazing amount of money for us, and will be used to provide food shops and activities for local families in poverty during the Summer Holidays. Thank you to all your staff and customers.

Thank you to an amazing 9 year old girl called Mia who raised £110 for us, by doing a reading challenge she set for herself
She was so chuffed to hear that her money will make a huge difference to local children who are living in poverty. Today we have provided birthday presents for a child who would have gone without any gifts on their special day, and also a food shop for a young carer who, due to tragic circumstances, has had to take on their siblings. Mia’s donation has paid for this – you should be very proud of yourself Mia!
If any parents would like any information about our charity, to put forward to your School’s PTA for fundraising this year, please ask.
Your donations, as above, make the world of difference, as we both run the charity in our spare time, voluntarily – for no financial reward. Something we feel passionate about
Thank you

Local People Helping Local Children This Christmas

Last Christmas, we created an “Amazon Wish List” for people to purchase Christmas gifts for the families we support. This was really successful and we received lots of lovely gifts. We have created a new list for this year – link below. It is set up to automatically deliver to our registered address.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/1048LG7JKMM85?ref_=wl_share&fbclid=IwAR06Sa8ItnTxpwFwgCeS68gF2w8cOzjihn1JEiSMaKIjZSwMraPZy_GlmNI

If anyone is able to – please click on the link and purchase a gift. It really does make such a difference; and our Christmas referrals are purely for children who would otherwise wake up to no presents on Christmas morning. Thank you for your continued support.
