When the cold season is upon us, it is vital that children have coats that keep them warm. We address the need by providing a child with a brand new, high quality warm winter coat.

Christmas Time
On Christmas day there are many elderly, isolated and vulnerable people who are unable to cook a Christmas dinner for themselves or are without family to go to. Community Christmas addresses this by providing and delivering a free hot home-cooked Christmas dinner with all of the trimmings to their home. For some people, it’s not just the meal that matters but it’s the company, so in 2023 we will also be providing an in-house sit-down meal, festive fun, family atmosphere and friendship for those who otherwise would see no one on Christmas Day.
