This Christmas is going to be incredibly difficult for lots of local families. We’ve been in touch with local and national charities and organisations, and listed below are those that are looking for your help in the run-up to the festive period.
Please note we will update this blog regularly and add new charities and organisations as they announce their plans. If you would like to be added to the blog please email us at harrogate@mumbler.co.uk
This Christmas hundreds of families will be living in emergency accommodation having fled violence and abuse. You can help to make this place of safety more comfortable and give families the opportunity to celebrate a Christmas free from domestic abuse by making a cash donation of giving vouchers or gift cards to be passed onto the families supported by IDAS.
You can also donate new items from the list below:
