CHRISTMAS KINDNESS WOKING
CHRISTMAS KINDNESS WOKING
Christmas Kindness is an opportunity to bring kindness, hope and joy to families who are finding life a real struggle at the moment with the cost of living crisis and fuel bills soaring.
This December in Woking we'll be running different events, including Christmas Kindness for families through Jigsaw, Ukrainian Christmas, a Partywear or PJs project with Style Studio, Christmas carols, a Christmas Bake Off, and a Christmas Day celebration! We'll also be giving out Christmas treats through Woking Foodbank, Winter Warmers items, and toiletries through the Hygiene Bank.
