UPDATE: Just announced, Platform Home Ownership has donated over £350 worth of Christmas presents to the Newark Salvation Army as part of their annual charity appeal, marking the third consecutive year of support. This urgent act of generosity is crucial as the Salvation Army works to bring joy to hundreds of families in the area this holiday season.

The donations, which will directly benefit local families in need, are part of a broader mission that sees the charity distribute more than 68,000 gifts across the UK each year. According to Captain Sarah O’Grady of the Newark Salvation Army, “We’re always so grateful for the support we receive from businesses like Platform. They truly help us continue the work we do here in Newark, supporting families and individuals who need a helping hand.”

The impact of these donations is profound. Each gift ensures that children who might otherwise go without a Christmas present will receive something special this year. Debra Taylor, a sales consultant at Platform, emphasized the importance of community support, saying, “Christmas is a great time of year, and a time of reflection too – we must always spare a thought for those less fortunate.”

This initiative not only spreads Christmas cheer but also fosters a sense of community responsibility among local businesses. “We’re passionate about giving back to our communities, and we hope this donation spreads not only Christmas cheer, but also warmth and love,” Taylor added.

As the festive season approaches, the Newark Salvation Army continues to rely on the generosity of local businesses like Platform Home Ownership to fulfill their mission. The community’s involvement is vital for ensuring that the spirit of Christmas reaches those who need it most.

With the holiday countdown underway, these donations highlight the importance of community support in making a difference. Keep an eye on initiatives from local businesses as they rally together to uplift families this Christmas.
