Santa's Cause

Following the huge success of our Santa’s Cause campaign in previous years, we are delighted to announce it's back for Christmas 2024.

 

The gift-giving and fundraising campaign aims to provide a gift for every young person in the Vale who may otherwise go without at Christmas.

 

Christmas should be a time of happiness and celebration. Sadly, for many families in the Vale of Glamorgan it can be one of great stress, anxiety, and sadness.

 

Our Social Services team estimate that each year as many as 1500 children who they support are likely to have nothing waiting for them on Christmas Day unless we are able to do something to help.  

 

Since our Santa’s Cause campaign launched in 2022, we have been able to provide thousands of gifts, providing huge relief for hundreds of families. This is all thanks to the generous contributions from communities in the Vale.

 

Find out how you can get involved with Santa's Cause this year:

We do our best to give each child something we know they will love. To do so, each year we ask our Social Services team to tell us what might be on each child’s Christmas list. Financial donations mean that we can shop for exactly what that child wants to find under their Christmas tree.

 

Anything you can contribute will help give a child a Merry Christmas:

We understand that not everyone will be in a position to contribute financially to Santa’s Cause.

 

If you wish to get involved, you can support Santa’s Cause at no cost by sharing the campaign with your friends and family, and on social media.
