Donations are how  
we roll!

Donating for Christmas 2025.

We have lots of ways to donate and support our work. You can donate new and like new items at a local donation point, cash donations help us fill gaps in donations as well as the cost of running the charity. New for 2025, we have created a Shop Local gift wish list where you can order gifts and we collect on your behalf.

Donate gifts

Our donation points are open from Saturday 1st – Sunday 16th November.

What can you donate? The list is endless so we have one simple rule: Would you wrap it up and gift it to a loved one? If the answer is YES, then we would be happy to accept it.

Please remember our simple gift donation rule:

“Would you wrap it up and gift it to a loved one?”

If the answer is yes then we would be delighted to accept it.

“Just to say a massive thank you for all those bags of toys you dropped off. The parents are thrilled. Just the thought of the reaction of these children on Christmas Day is heartwarming, thank you so much!”

From a school in HP23 area.

“I wish you could have seen the response from some of our parents when they collected their gifts. They were so touched that their child's interests had been matched to gifts and so surprised, delighted and overwhelmed with what they had been given. I hope that you are all aware of what a big difference this makes to some families.”

A school in Tring.

“I just wanted to let you know that we have delivered the toy parcels today. Thank you to all of you for making this happen. You’re a great bunch of people. Enjoy your Christmas with the knowledge that you have helped so many struggling families.”
