Do your bit for charity this Christmas » Communities » 24dash.com

Would you like to help a disability charity this Christmas, but just don’t have the time? Papworth Trust has the answer. The leading disability charity is working with companies to offer easy and hassle-free ways to help make a real difference to people’s lives.

This Christmas, Papworth Trust is running two Fundraising appeals. The first is a ‘Christmas cards at work’ appeal. Instead of buying Christmas cards for work colleagues, companies are invited to get together and instead donate the money they would have spent to Papworth Trust.

The second is a ‘Last hours pay’ appeal, which invites people to donate the amount of money that they would earn in their last hour of work before Christmas.

As a charity, Papworth Trust relies on the support of individuals, companies and Trusts. Both appeals will raise valuable funds and have a huge impact on making a real difference to people’s lives.

If you would like to support Papworth Trust at this festive time, please contact Mandy Barker, Area Fundraising Manager at Papworth Trust on 01480 357257 or e-mail mandy.barker@papworth.org.uk. 

For those of you who have already taken part, or plan on taking part, we are happy to publish your name onto our website if you would like us to.

Thank you to those of you who have donated to Papworth Trust before, and thank you to those who will donate in the future.
