Newbury Building Society raises over £8900 for Mortgage Sleep Out
35 employees battled a wet night in the middle of Falkland Cricket Club’s training ground in aid of End Youth Homelessness.
This year’s Wokingham Giving Tree Appeal has been launched to offer you the chance to make a local child smile this Christmas.
The idea is simple, but it sparkles with the true spirit of the season. All shoppers need to do is choose a tag from a participating tree location, buy the gift suggested and return it, unwrapped to the place where they collected the tag from.
Volunteers then take the donated presents to the local charities benefiting from the appeal and ensure they go to children whose stockings might otherwise have been empty on Christmas morning.
Our Wokingham branch is one of the many locations from which you can pick a tag and leave a gift.
The charities benefiting from The 2018 Wokingham Giving Tree are:
- Alexander Devine
- ASD Family Help
- Barnardo’s
- Berkshire Vision
- Children with Special Needs Foundation
- Dingley Family and Specialist Early Years Centre
- Home Start
- Look Ahead
- Sebastian’s Action Trust
- Wokingham Young Carers
- Women’s Aid
- Transform Housing
