There’s still time to Give a Gift!

Christmas is fast approaching and our readers have been incredibly generous in supporting the Give A Gift Appeal but there’s still time to donate – so no excuses!

The Spalding and South Holland Voice teamed up with We’ll Let Your House to launch the appeal and since then readers have been leaving gifts at drop-off points.

We’ll be delighted if you decide to support the appeal, which closes on December 15, but ask you please not to gift wrap your present – they need to be assessed to ensure families receive toys suitable for their child’s age and gender.

We are accepting gifts suitable for children from one year to 14 years.

We cannot accept secondhand items, cuddly toys without a CE label, cosmetics, make-up, bath products or perishables.

Separately, top quality used cuddly toys carrying the CE mark are sought by the Donate A Cuddle appeal as part of Ella’s Project.

Donations for both appeals can be left at collection points at:

  • Our reception in Winsover Road, Spalding
  • We’ll Let Your House, Broad Street, Spalding
  • Sainsbury’s, Spalding
  • Beales Department Store, Market Place, Spalding
  • South Holland District Council, Priory Road, Spalding
  • Baytree Nurseries Winter Wonderland, Weston
