Attending our annual Christmas lunch means the world to these elderly people
Many elders on a state pension can’t afford to eat out and rarely get out much. Your donation ensures that they can join in the Christmas festivities . . . dress up in their best clothes . . . and experience fun, companionship and laughter around the table.
Any amount you can give makes a difference.
