Tree-mendous initiative providing Christmas gifts to underprivileged children.

Every child deserves to experience the joy of Christmas morning.

The Beacon are working with Salvation Army’s 'Be A Star' initiative to help provide Christmas gifts to hundreds of thousands of underprivileged children this Christmas.

Star tags are located on the tree and specify the age of different children, anybody can select a tag from our tree, purchase a gift or gifts for that child and return them to the Beacon by Friday 8 December.

The Salvation Army Be A Star Tree is located in the Beacon reception. Pop in and take a tag - every little present helps… 🎁
