We appealed, you delivered AGAIN
Our Christmas appeal this year has once again been incredible. Each year we are blown away with the support and this year is no different. We started out appeal at the end of October and hoped to equal the amount of presents we were able to donate last year (200), with the help and support from even more people and local businesses we have been able to deliver approximately 300 presents this year which will help many children and families this Christmas.
We take huge pride knowing that we’ve been able to ensure many children receive gifts and many families can enjoy Christmas knowing they have presents for their loved ones, taking away some of the stresses and strains that come with the current climate and challenging times people currently face and live in.
Andy Hirst Fundraiser
A message from Gavin Fell
I wish I wasn’t having to write this post, but I really want to help a very close friend and a great person Andy Hirst, Andy has supported many people, people who have suffered from addictions, people who are finding things hard, and it’s now time to help him.
Andy who is from Newcastle, but currently lives out in the states suffered a major stroke, recently married and recently a father for the first time, having a stroke is horrendous, but this couldn’t have happened at a worse time, on top of all of that, Andy is having to cover his own medical bills and being a self employed artist this is proving to be very hard for him and his family, and we determined to help him in his time of need.
