Shoebox Appeal

This is the season of giving, and this Christmas, we invite you to join us in making a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need it most.

Fill a shoebox

Filling a shoebox is a meaningful way to bring joy and support to someone in need. Whether you're gifting a child, young person, or adult experiencing homelessness, your thoughtful selection of items can make a real difference. Please label your shoe box with the age-group intended for your gift i.e. 0-3 yrs, 3-6 yrs, 6-10 yrs, 10-13 yrs, 13+, 18+

Remember:
  • Please note that we cannot accept second-hand clothing or shoes.
  • It is not necessary to wrap individual items as all items must be checked.


Ideas for Your Shoebox:

  • Essentials: Include practical items like socks, new unopened underwear, toiletries, and hats or gloves.
  • Fun Extras: Add a touch of joy with toys, games, books, or small treats.

Donations will be accepted from 25 November to 13 December, between 10am and 3pm daily, Monday to Friday.
