Here every day, not just Christmas Day.

This year, we’ve taken the difficult decision to scale back our Christmas Gifting. CEO Lucy Budge explains.

After careful consideration we have taken the difficult decision to scale back our Christmas Gifting event this year.

The number of women accessing our services continue to rise, our own time and resources are increasingly stretched, and this year our primary focus must be upon the families we have supported throughout the year and their ongoing need.

Our priority has to be ensuring My Sisters’ House continues to provide specialist and accessible support for women facing difficulty. We want to be here to support local women every way that we can, every day of the year.

We will still be supporting our current clients and their children with small gifts provided by the V2 Radio Toy Appeal, The Rotary Club, The Body Shop, Dunelm and other local companies that have also pledged their support.

However, we are not in a position to accept individual gift donations and will not be holding large gifting events this time.

This means that we won’t be asking the general public for gifts this year.

Instead we hope that you will be able to donate financially to help us continue our life changing, and life saving, work.

We understand that this decision may be disappointing for many of you, and it has not been taken lightly.

Thank you for your continued support, it means the world to us, and the women we support.
