Merry Christmas From Us to You
Alan Kitto
As Christmas draws ever closer, we wanted to take the opportunity to of saying that it’s been a huge pleasure working with you this year and we hope that you’re able to recharge your spent batteries over the Christmas period ready for what I very much hope will be a prosperous 2024.
2023 was a milestone year for us; in October we celebrated our 20th anniversary and some of our original clients are still still us; a huge thank you to you and to everyone who has made it possible to reach this milestone.
As we have done in previous years, instead of gifts and cards, we’ve sponsored ten places in this years Crisis at Christmas Appeal, ensuring that ten homeless people will have this Christmas:
A place to stay
Friendship and support from volunteer befrienders
Essential food and festive treats
Phone and online support and advice
Christmas activity packs including arts and crafts,
Games and quizzes
Health and wellbeing programmes
Advice on housing, employment, and benefits
Christmas is just the beginning, our donation will also help fund year-round support including training and education so that people experiencing homelessness are given the chance to leave homelessness behind for good.
Our offices will close on Friday 15th December 2023 although we’ll be responding to urgent e-mails and calls that can’t wait until the New Year; we’ll be back on January 2nd 2024.
We wish everyone a restful, happy and healthy Christmas and a prosperous 2024.
