Christmas Hamper Appeal & Santa Sleigh December 2011

Each year the Cranleigh Lions make up around 100 Christmas hampers that are delivered to individuals and families in and around Cranleigh who otherwise wouldn't have the luxuries that many of us have at this time of year.

The Cranleigh Lions need your help to fill these hampers and so Saturday 3rd December and Saturday 10th December from 10am to 4pm we will be outside of the Co-Op and Sainsbury's in Cranleigh, collecting donations of food items such as cakes, jams, tinned fruits and meat or a cash donation.

With the cash donations we buy eggs and some additional luxury items, if people haven’t already bought those for us, make up the hampers and distribute them in time for Christmas.

Our Santa Sleigh visits the streets below playing carols, with Santa on board giving out sweets amd small presents to young children, who are generally very excited!

Donations collected support the hamper appeal.
