“"The Give a Gift campaign is one of the most meaningful initiatives we support each year. Christmas should be a time of joy, excitement and treasured memories for every child, yet we know that for some families this can be a particularly challenging time. The incredible generosity shown by our communities year after year never fails to inspire us. Every toy, gift and donation represents far more than a present. It is a reminder to a child that they are valued, cared for and not forgotten. We are proud to once again partner with Thurrock Council and support Little Havens Children's Hospice in helping to bring a little Christmas magic to local children who need it most. We encourage anyone who is able to donate to visit one of our centres and join us in making a real difference. Together, we can help create special moments and happy memories that will last long beyond Christmas Day."
“"Christmas is a time where friends and loved ones come together, but for others it can be a difficult holiday. I’m absolutely delighted that Give a Gift has returned for another year, so we can all help to ensure our borough's vulnerable children can have a gift to unwrap on Christmas Day. Each year it has brought together communities from across Thurrock. If you can donate, I would really encourage you to get involved and help make a difference, thanks to Impulse Leisure as an added incentive you can save money on the joining fee for a new membership when you donate two or more toys to one of its sites."
