Together with our 2026 partner

Christway Baptist
Church Salford.

The Christmas party is about food, warmth and community — and making people feel seen, remembered and loved.

Alongside the meal, we aim to share winter coats, hats, gloves and useful care items, subject to donations. Volunteers help prepare, pack, organise and distribute.
