Charity Christmas gift ideas 2023: Our top picks
The season of giving is here. This Christmas, give a gift that gives back and support a vulnerable child
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Christmas for children is magical. But some children in the UK will face something very different. A Christmas without toys, treats, or Christmas dinner – maybe no dinner at all.
We’re doing everything we can to change this. But we need your help.
If you're looking for a gift for a loved one, why not choose one that supports a vulnerable child?
Choose from our range of virtual gifts and dedicate it to a loved one. You'll receive a virtual or printable card (which you can personalise!). You can send this to them to let them know their gift is helping put the magic back into a child’s Christmas.
A trip to visit Santa, £10
This gift could pay for a trip to visit Father Christmas, for a child who would otherwise miss out.
Hot dinners, £12/month
This monthly gift could provide a hot dinner for a child for a week.
“I often see parents skipping meals or reducing their portions so that their children can eat. And at Christmas, that can be especially tough.” Action for Children Support Worker.
A Christmas present, £25
For some children, this Christmas will be like any other day. They’ll wake up to no lights, no tree and no presents. Your gift could give a child the joy of opening up a Christmas present where they’d otherwise miss out.
Support Worker, £40/month
This regular gift could provide a support worker to help a child in crisis this winter.
A bed and a warm duvet for a child, £150
