Christmas Gifting
Give the gift of 'Hope' this Christmas...
Last Christmas, not every child had a present waiting for them under the tree.
Many children are impacted by difficult home lives, bereavement and adversity. These children won’t have gloves to keep them warm on the winter walk to school; they won’t have a hot meal waiting for them at home; and they won’t have a present for them under the tree on Christmas morning.
You can help us change this.
With your support, we want to help 6,000 disadvantaged children and young people right here in the East
Midlands this festive period by providing Christmas experiences, essential items and precious gifts this Christmas.
That’s why, as the nights get darker and colder, we’re asking you, our amazing supporters, to help by
making a donation this Christmas:
A Christmas experience
£50 could help fund an enchanted Christmas experience for a family. Children experiencing the joy of seeing Santa, a visit to Rudolph’s Reindeer station or maybe a breakfast with the big man himself and lots of other treats.

Winter wear
£20 could help provide a warm coat, £10 will provide a hat, gloves and scarf to a child or young person who needs them to keep the cold out on the way to school, and for some, help them stay warm at home too.
Be a Secret Santa!
£10 could help us buy an age-appropriate gift for a child or young person facing severe adversity to open on Christmas Day.
We know times are tough at the moment, but a donation, no matter how big or small, means you’ll be making this Christmas special for a child or young person here in the East Midlands.
Other ways to help
We understand that not everyone is in a position to donate money this year, but there are other ways you can help. We’d be really grateful to receive:
These can be dropped off to the LCH Charity Office at 82 Cannock Street, Leicester, LE4 9HR on:
Monday, Tuesday & Thursday up until 17th December 2026
There is free parking outside the office. If you’d like to arrange another time to drop off your toys of winter
wear, please contact the office: email: hello@lchcharity.co.uk or tel: 0116 251 9863
Thank you for being the one that makes a child smile on Christmas morning, letting them know they’re not
alone.
Wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
