Christmas

Help us make Christmas brighter for 700 local households.

This year, our Christmas Hamper Project is once again spreading festive joy to families across the district. With your help, we’re aiming to reach 700 households who might otherwise struggle during the holiday season.

Every household referred to us through trusted local partners such as P3, Citizens Advice, schools, and GP surgeries will receive a Christmas Hamper packed with festive treats, along with a full foodbank parcel of essentials including fresh fruit and vegetables, bread, eggs, toiletries, household cleaning items, and even pet food.

But we can’t do it without you.

How You Can Help

🌟 Take Part in Our Reverse Advent

Throughout November, collect 24 items from our Advent list, one each day, and bring them to our warehouse during the last week of November. It’s a fun, meaningful way to give back this Christmas.

📦 Join Our Christmas Donation Open Day

Visit us on Saturday 29th November 10am–2pm for our special open day. Bring your donations, meet some of the team, and enjoy a hot drink and mince pie whilst spreading Christmas cheer.

🏢 Organise a Community or Business Collection

If you’d like to get your workplace, school, or community group involved, we’ll provide everything you need from posters to collection crates. It’s a great way to come together and make a real difference locally.

🛒 Give While You Shop

You can also donate items whilst doing your weekly shop. Look out for our collection baskets at Tesco Stroud & Cam, Sainsbury’s Stroud, Waitrose Stroud, and most local Co-ops.

🎁 Please ensure all Christmas donations reach us by the end of November, so we can pack and deliver every hamper in time for Christmas week.

Together, we can make sure no one in our community goes without this Christmas.

Let’s make it a season to remember filled with warmth, generosity, and hope.
