We have just found out that Clifton Hotels has chosen us as one of their ‘Charities to support this Christmas’, that The Bristol Magazine has featured an appeal for us in their December issue and that Barcan Woodward have raised an amazing £4163 for us this year as their Charity of the Year. Also a huge thank you to Wotton Baptist Church, Kensington Baptist Church and Bank of Ireland for their wonderful donations of Christmas presents for the women and their children.

It is so wonderful to have the support of local businesses around Bristol who are giving back to their community. Appeals and support like these mean a lot to us and the vulnerable women that we support around this time of year. We are also grateful to the masses of supporters who’ve arranged collections of clothes, Christmas chocolates and other goodies for us to give out to the women this Christmas: there just isn’t space to list all the generous people that keep turning up on our door with gifts!

Read all about what One25 is up to this festive period in my interview with  Drop-in Support Worker Mel, here. 

This winter we are in need of some umbrellas and some unopened pampering goods like face creams, moisturisers, lip balms etc. If anyone is able and willing to donate some of these, we will be even more overwhelmed with generosity! Get in touch with us at office@one25.org.uk or call 0117 909 4390.
