THANKS to the generosity of local people and organisations as well as support from the Vale Council, the Big Wrap was once again a great success in 2016.

We provided more than 1,500 gifts to 325 children and young people in the Vale who might otherwise have received nothing or very little for Christmas.

We couldn't have done it without you - so whether you donated a toy, wrapped a gift, wrote a cheque or helped us with deliveries - thank you.

You helped us bring smiles to hundreds of faces. Here's to 2017 when we'll be doing it all over again.

If you'd like to get involved please contact the Big Wrap coordinator by ringing 07725 773746 or emailing bigwrap@yahoo.co.uk
