Wood Street Mission Christmas Appeal

SUPPORTING LOCAL FAMILIES THIS CHRISTMAS

Wood Street Mission is a children’s charity based just off Deansgate in Manchester City Centre. Established in 1869, we support families from Manchester and Salford who are struggling to make ends meet.

At Christmas we provide new toys and gifts for children aged 0-14 years old, to make sure they have something special to open on Christmas Day.

Our Christmas Appeal will launch on Monday 10th October, and we will be accepting Christmas donations from then until Friday 9th December. Donations of toys, gadgets, craft sets, stationery, hats/gloves, pyjamas, books, chocolate, wrapping paper and Sellotape would be much appreciated. If you’re able to donate, please try to get yours to us as early as you can, to enable us to help as many families as possible.

In 2021, we distributed 14,000 Christmas presents thanks to your generosity. Local families especially

need our support during the festive period. They will be invited to visit our Christmas shop at Wood Street to choose new gifts for their children to open on Christmas morning, plus extra goodies such as selection boxes and stocking fillers.

We wouldn’t be able to help over the festive period without the generosity of supporters like you. Your support will help struggling families after a hard year and help local children have a special Christmas.

Donations can be dropped at Wood Street (26 Wood Street, Manchester M3 3EF) Monday to Friday, 8.30am- 4.30pm or can be delivered direct from retailers.
