Real Lives – Christmas Hampers

No one should go without during the festive season.

This Christmas, something really special happened. Our staff and volunteers came together—alongside some wonderfully kind children from Moons Moat First School—to pack Christmas hampers filled with festive treats, care, and thoughtfulness.

The hampers were shared with school age children, our nurseries and people across our community thanks to the hard work and dedication of our community centre staff, busy youth team & volunteers and anyone willing to load their car to the brim! We know that this time of year can be especially challenging, and sometimes it’s the smallest gestures that make the biggest difference.

Some hampers even included handwritten letters from the children, offering messages of kindness and reminding people that they are not forgotten.

This is what community looks like to us, and this is what we stand for at YMCA Worcestershire.
