As Christmas approaches, Warrington Voluntary Action (WVA) has launched its Christmas Gifts Donations Appeal to support families facing challenging times.
The initiative aims to ensure every child can experience the magic of Christmas, no matter their circumstances.
With the rising cost of living, unexpected expenses and other hardships weighing on many, providing for children during the festive season can feel overwhelming. The appeal gathers donated gifts, which are then distributed to families nominated by trusted professionals, offering them a little joy during a difficult time.
The appeal welcomes everyone to participate in whatever way they can. Donating a gift, hosting a collection point, or simply spreading the word can make a real difference. WVA encourages businesses, teams and groups to get involved and create their own donation stations, with the reassurance that they’ll be supported every step of the way.
Donations can be dropped off at various locations around Warrington, including the Christmas Appeal Store on Sankey Street, the Golden Square Customer Service Kiosk, and the Foodbank at Riverside Retail Park. More locations will be announced soon, so keep an eye on updates through WVA’s Facebook page.
WVA’s message is clear: even if giving isn’t an option, simply sharing news of the appeal can help it reach others who may be able to contribute. Every small act of kindness can help bring warmth and happiness to a family this Christmas.
