Donations are needed for this year’s Santa appeal. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Our annual Santa Appeal helps young people in Torfaen who are experiencing poverty and have little or no contact with their families. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

It has previously been a tremendous success, thanks to the generosity of all those who have participated. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

If you would like to participate, call 01633 647538 or 647539 after 24 October to be given the first name and age of a child, plus a reference number. (Names are only given from the 16+ team). Gifts should not be wrapped, but a donation of wrapping paper would be greatly appreciated. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Donations need to be made by Monday 5 December 2016. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Once your gift is ready, you can drop the gift off at any of the following places: ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

  • TYPSS, The Studio, Oldbury Business Estate, Cwmbran NP44 3JU
  • Cwmbran Library, Gwent Square, Cwmbran Shopping Centre, NP44 1PL
  • TVA, Portland Buildings, Commercial Street, Pontypool, NP4 6JS.

The appeal is also accepting non -perishable food to make up hampers for our young people 16 and over who are living alone. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
