The Helping Whittlesey Christmas Appeal has been running for a few years , helping local families to reduce the financial pressure of Christmas!

We provided 172 presents to local children in 2024 and this number increases each year. This is done through the schools, food banks, youth groups, church groups and those we know through Helping Whittlesey.

We secured grants, collected items all year round, had a giving tree at the Falcon and with the generous donations of the community, we were able to support so many families.

We are actively seeking support all year round with this so any donations are always appreciated. This includes new or as new, toys, games, books, smellies, clothes (new with tags) etc. These can be dropped off via the Pantry at opening times or passed to a member of staff at the Falcon Hotel to be passed over.
