The Lichfield Garrick Theatre & Studio is kindly opening its door to collect gifts for the children in local women’s refuge over the winter, in support of our community partners, The Buddy Bag Foundation.
On the 19th of December, please bring along a wrapped gift to donate to the cause; please make sure you label the outside for the gender(s) and age range of the gift, so the team can personalise the gift giving. Nurture will be providing a wrapping station,should you need it!
On this occasion, we ask that any toys/books/gifts are new.
MORE ABOUT THE BUDDY BAG FOUNDATION:
The Buddy Bag Foundation was created in response to the rising number of children who enter emergency care after fleeing violent situations at home.
Restoring a sense of safety and security into a child’s life during a traumatic time is one of the first steps to recovery. By providing these children with a few essential items, our mission is to help make the transition into emergency care a little easier.
To support children in this situation we have created the Buddy Bag to provide comfort when all else has been removed.
