Over many years, we have been privileged to provide local people in crisis with food hampers for Christmas. In 2023 we were able to provide for 870 households, and for 2024, we believe that the need will be as great as ever.
There are a number of different ways in which you can get involved and help out. Check out the options below.
One way you can help is by purchasing the items on this shopping list, and donating them in an opened box wrapped in Christmas wrapping paper. We make boxes both for single people, and for families which are sized & filled appropriately. Click on the buttons below to see shopping lists for each type.
You can simply buy one or two items from the list and donate them to Christmas in a Box. We will make up a box for you!
As with Option 1 (providing a full hamper), please refer to the Single Person or Family shopping lists linked just above to ensure that you purchase suitable items.
You can donate the cost of a box (£15 for a single box or £37 for a family box). We will then purchase the contents on your behalf, and make the box up. If you would like to give via electronic payment, please use the following details or give online by clicking the button.

You can drop off your completed boxes or food items between 3-5pm on December 8th, or 4-6pm on December 9th, at All Nations Church Bedford, 79 Brickhill Drive, MK41 7QF. Alternatively, you can donate towards the cost of a box at any time before those dates with the information above.
Anything you can provide - no matter how small - will make a huge difference to the lives of local people living in crisis this coming Christmas.
Thank you for your support!
