Stage One are pleased to continue to support our friends at The Spirit of Christmas during the festive period.
They support families throughout the year, at what can be a very stressful and challenging time for many. A Yorkshire-based charity, their aim is simple, they seek to make Christmas joyful for all.
Their activities include a toy bank, Santa’s grotto, and children’s parties. At Stage One, we introduced a scheme for staff members to buy material off-cuts, and the funds raised from these purchases are used to buy toys for the charity’s toy bank.
This is such a successful scheme. We also provide the charity with a Santa’s grotto and a stage for their Christmas parties, with several members of staff using their volunteer day and their personal time to make and install them.
The Spirit of Christmas is run by a team of dedicated volunteers, and since their start in 2009 they have catered for over 6,600 children and families at their Christmas parties. We are delighted to help them spread Christmas cheer to those who might otherwise be without. And we’re proud of the continued efforts of our team to help make this happen.
“As a very small charity we are grateful for the support we receive from individuals and organisations that help us to provide for 1600-2000 children through the projects that we run.” The Spirit of Christmas
