For most of us, the festive season is a happy time. But there are children all over the UK who face a Christmas without food, warmth or love.
Our charity partner Action for Children, are working hard to change this – but they need your help.
You don’t need a team of reindeer, or a magic sleigh. You can do something very special by raising money to give children a hot meal, a safe place to sleep or a present, by becoming a Secret Santa for a vulnerable child this Christmas.
The Action for Children Christmas fundraising pack is full of ideas to get your site involved in festive fundraising. Why not have a Not-so-Secret Santa day and ask colleagues to wear a Santa hat and beard for a small donation?
Get your reindeer antlers on and organise a festive bake sale, or even a Christmas film night! Text Christmas to 70175 to donate £3. You could also order one of our Christmas edition scratch cards for your site by emailing RoyalMail@actionforchildren.org.uk. Your support could help a child have a warm bed and a hot meal this Christmas.
Christmas is a time for giving, and Action for Children are here to give you a helping hand! They can suggest ideas or help plan activities and events. You can also download decorations, including bunting and posters, from: iamsanta.org.uk/kit or get in touch with Vicky, at Action for Children at RoyalMail@actionforchildren.org.uk
