Situation
Christmas Day is a special occasion for most families, but for some Care Leavers Christmas can be a lonely time. We aim to combat isolation by providing a magical and memorable annual Christmas Day event for 50+ young adults who grew up in local authority care.
Solution
For the eighth year running we plan to provide a magical Christmas Day event for 50+ local care leavers from across three London Boroughs - Hounslow, Richmond and Kingston - to ensure that they are treated with kindness, care and given the experience of a traditional family-feel Christmas that they deserve. This is not just about one day. As special as the day is, above all it is about community, connection and kindness - all of which make a difference to people's lives long-term.
