Xmas Presence 2019

Sunday, 1st December 2019

EDGE Services are proud to support this wonderful York-based project. The Xmas Presence aim is to help to alleviate the sadness of elderly people who would otherwise find themselves alone at Christmas time by providing transport, Christmas dinner & refreshments, entertainment, presents and good company on Christmas Day.

This is all done completely free of charge through kind donations and the generosity of volunteers.

The team are currently on the lookout for donations for homemade hamper gifts - baked, pickled, knitted, crocheted, sewn - and also for any Christmas decorations for the room and tables.

If you are thinking of making a donation to charity instead of sending Christmas Cards this year or, if you have items that you could donate for hampers - please consider helping out the Xmas Presence team - you can read more about what they do here:

If you are lucky enough to be surrounded by loving family and friends at Christmas time then please help to share the joy a little further.
