Thanks to you, Claire’s children had a magical Christmas

Your generosity makes life better for local families like Claire’s going through tough times.

Claire is a loving mum of three who has been hit hard by the rising cost of living. Since her husband had to stop working because of illness, she’s really struggled to put food on the table for her children. 

The family has had to go without. And that’s been a terrible strain on Claire, especially at Christmas time when all she’s ever wanted is to give her children a happy time full of good food and good cheer. Claire told us, “No one should go hungry at Christmas.”

The good news is that, thanks to your wonderful generosity, Claire and her children didn’t have to go without this Christmas.

Because of your kindness, Claire received a Foodbank Christmas hamper. And that changed everything. She told us: 

“When you get a Foodbank hamper, you’re so grateful for it. It helps to know that we’ll be able to have a fuller table spread. Everyone can have a nice family meal.” 

What’s more, Claire isn’t the only one who was able to feed her family this Christmas.  

Your generosity helped make sure that thousands more families like hers received a nutritious hamper.  

Claire knows just how much that means to struggling parents like her. “It helps a lot of families out, and some that are even worse off than we are,” she said. 


Your kindness this festive season didn’t just help mums like Claire put food on the table. It totally transformed Christmas.  

Thank you so much for making it a happy Christmas for Claire and so many others. What a wonderful present to give!
