A huge thank you to Paul Moran and his team at Barclays, who held a fantastic football tournament to raise money for our Christmas Appeal!

They raised an amazing £140, helping take our total to 20% of our £1,000 target!

Every penny raised will help us provide Christmas Eve boxes for local children, filled with cosy pyjamas and festive treats, as well as Christmas food hampers for families who are struggling.

Can you help us get closer to our goal?

Whether you can donate £2, £5, £10 or simply share our appeal, every bit of support helps us bring a little Christmas magic to local families facing a difficult time.

We’re getting ready for Christmas… and we need your help!

It might only be September, but we know that Santa.....and parents, are already starting to think ahead to Christmas. And here at the Joseph Lappin Centre, we’re getting ready too.

For some local families, Christmas brings extra worry and financial pressure. We want to help make sure that families going through a difficult time can still enjoy a little extra Christmas magic.

This year, we’re raising money to provide:
Christmas Eve boxes with cosy pyjamas and festive treats for local children
Christmas hampers filled with essential food and Christmas goodies for families

And we simply couldn’t do it without the support of our amazing community.

Every donation genuinely helps! Whether it’s £2, £5 or whatever you can spare, it all adds up and helps us support more local families this Christmas.

And if you can’t donate, sharing our appeal helps too. One share could put it in front of someone who can.

Let’s come together and spread a little Christmas kindness across our community.

Iʼm raising money to Help Us Bring Christmas Cheer to Local Families. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.

Now THAT is teamwork!

A massive thank you to the brilliant team from Intact Insurance who spent the day volunteering with us at the JLC's community garden.
We recently secured funding from the National Lottery Awards for All and the BHP Billiton Endowment Fund so they supported us to clear our space so that we can get ready to build.

Such a hardworking, positive and genuinely lovely bunch of people. The difference a team like this can make in just one day is incredible, and their help means we can make our garden funding go even further.

Thank you Intact – you were AMAZING!
