You can donate gifts via our donation locations. These are businesses that have got involved across the North East of England to support our campaign.

You can also donate money via our website. This money goes 100% back to the children who need it most. We are voluntary ran and currently have no other outgoing expenses. If the money we raise isnt used this year, it is used the year after.

If you donate a gift it will go directly to the child you donated too. We have two types of gift tags this year, after unpresented demand last year we have created some tags that will have a age range on them (e.g 10-12) these tags might be more general – we use these gifts for children who come in last minute. We are using data from last year to estimate what will be required with these tags.

However if your tag has an exact age on it – then it’s for a child directly.

If you donate money via our website, this money is used for children we can’t find gifts for. This might be because a tag has got lost or there has been no donation for that gift.

We ask that ALL gifts are left unwrapped, this is so our team can check the items and ensure they are the correct age for the child and to check there are no other hidden items witin the gift.

You will see the age of the child (or an age range if it is a general request), the gender of the child and you will also see what that child has asked for. This is as much data as we can provide.

Yes! We may start an Amazon wishlist closer to the time however donations are open on our website.

We mainly ask for what is written on that particular tag. However you can donate extra items. 

The following items cannot be donated:

• Sharps/Weapons 
• Money (Gift cards are accepted without the recipt)
• Second Hand Items
• Alcohol/Drugs

If any items listed above are found, they will be removed from the gifts.

The last day for applications being submitted is the 15th December. This is to allow us time to procsess all the tags and gifts before Christmas.

We will drop gifts off at the chosen hub of the professional handling your submission. If you have requested gifts directly we will liaise with you to plan the best way of getting them to you.
