Christmas Giving – Gift Hampers for local households

Can you help? Godalming Minster is collecting goodies to make up gift hampers for local individuals and families, some of whom are supported by the Foodbank at Franklyn Road year round, and some who appreciate a little help at this time of year. We also receive requests via our local church schools (Busbridge Juniors and St Mark’s and All Saints) and The Cellar Camino Café too.

We aim to make the hampers a real treat and show of love and generosity to those who might not be able to enjoy the nicer things at Christmas. It is especially appreciated if the items are from the luxury range rather than value range.

Shopping List
To share the buying, we’ve divided the shopping list into smaller lists of 4-6 items. You can pick one up
from church, or download the pdf with all six .

Donation Drop Off
From now-15 Dec
There are collection points for donations at all Godalming Minster locations: Hambledon Church, The Yew Tree Café at Busbridge Church Brighton Road, St Peter & St Paul’s Church Street as well as St Mark’s Franklyn Road.
