Thank You and Donation Evening 2025

Our annual event to say thank you to those who helped us with our Christmas Campaign and to hand out grants from the monies raised!


 

Thank You and Donation Evening

 

This has become a regular feature in our calendar, bringing together many of the volunteers who help us during our Christmas Campaign, either collecting with the float, outside Asda, or helping out at Rivendell Garden Centre. 

Last year, 59 different groups, charities and individuals were awarded a grant from our 2024 Christmas Campaign, joining us for what was a lovely night at Parklands Sports Club, celebrating all the good
that goes on in our wonderful community!
