Christmas
Help people experiencing crisis in Bristol this Christmas
Thank you for thinking of all the people who are struggling in the run up to Christmas.
Please make sure all donations are long life, unopened, in-date and don’t need to be refrigerated.
Individuals and families can help in these ways
- You can donate food bought at any of the supermarkets we have donation bins
- You can buy a Christmas Bundle for a Family of 4 or an individual through our online shop. These bundles will be delivered directly to us, and then packaged up and sent out to our clients.
- You can purchase Argos Vouchers and a card and get them to our office in Easton (Unit 36 Easton Business Park, Felix Road, BS5 0HE) – unsealed and we will distribute them to individuals and families before Christmas so they can buy toys and gifts
- You can take part in a Reverse Advent Calendar – either collecting Christmas items in November and then donating by 6th December OR you can collect the items we need all year round and donate in January!
- Please share our Video appeal above!
Businesses
