Christmas Appeal

๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿป๐Ÿคถ๐Ÿป Itโ€™s the most wonderful time of the year.


๐Ÿ˜ฃ But it can also be the most stressful time of the year for families who have little or no disposable income.


๐ŸŽ„Last year, we combined our donations with Sacriston Salvation Army and Langley Moor Salvation Army, 120 families received toy/gift donations so children had presents to open on Christmas morning.


We are now starting the 2021 Christmas appeal in partnership with Sacriston Salvation Army.


If you would like to contribute you can:


1. Drop off a new and unwrapped gift to Sacriston Salvation Army Care and Share Shop - Front Street, Sacriston during shop opening hours.


2. Drop off a new and unwrapped toy at Nettlesworth Community Centre - please message us to find out when centre staff are on duty.


3. You can also make financial contributions by donating a gift voucher, or bank transfer to Sacriston Youth Projectโ€™s charity bank account. - please do not give cash or make payments into anyoneโ€™s personal bank account.


We would be grateful if donations could be made/dropped off before Saturday 13th November.
