Still time to give a gift

This year’s Give a Gift appeal is well underway but there are now only two weeks left to donate.

The Spalding and South Holland Voice has teamed up with Coun Mark Le Sage, founder of Ella’s Project, to launch the appeal this year.

We’ll be delighted if you support the appeal but ask you not to gift wrap your present – they need to be assessed to ensure children receive suitable toys.

We respectfully ask that the gifts are in new or ‘as new’ condition and we are unable to accept cuddly toys, make-up, toiletries or food and perishable items due to health and safety.

Give A Gift helps ensure less fortunate children aged between three and 14-years-old have a gift to open on Christmas Day.

All presents will go to South Holland and Boston Child Services to distribute in time for Christmas.

Collection points are: Collection points this year are: The Spalding and South Holland Voice, Short Street, Spalding (before 1pm), Sainsbury’s, Holland Market, Spalding, Nat West, Market Place, Spalding, Calthrops Solicitors, Hall Place, Spalding, Frydays Fish and Chip Shop, Crowland, The Noshery, Springfields Garden Centre, Spalding, Vine House Farm, Deeping St Nicholas and Baytree at Weston (Santa’s Grotto booking office), Anglia Motel café, Fleet Hargate.
