Help Make Christmas Special for Families in Stockport

This Christmas, let’s come together to spread joy and kindness across our community. We’re working with Chelwood Foodback Plus, collecting food, gifts, and toys to create festive hampers for local families who could use a little extra cheer - and we’d love your help.

Every donation, big or small, helps make someone’s Christmas feel special. From tasty treats to thoughtful presents for all ages, your generosity can light up someone’s holiday.

You can drop off your donations at any of our six branches - just check the map below to find your nearest one and opening times. And if you’re wondering what to give, we’ve put together a handy guide with ideas to make it easy.

What to donate

Suggested Christmas Food Items:

Not sure what to food to donate? Think festive, comforting, and classic. We're looking for those little seasonal touches that help make Christmas feel special - things like tubs of chocolates to share, a tin of biscuits for the family to enjoy, or a box of crackers to bring some sparkle to the dinner table. Christmas puddings, chutneys, and mince pies are also perfect additions.

Gift Donations for Children

Items like cosy socks, toiletries, pyjamas, and age-appropriate toys to help make Christmas morning special for as many children as possible. Gifts for all age groups are appreciated, so feel free to contribute whatever you can.

Gift Donations for Adults

We’re also supporting parents, carers, and individuals who may be going without this Christmas. Practical, general gifts such as toiletries, warm socks, and gift sets are ideal. These small gestures can bring comfort to someone who might otherwise receive nothing.
