News > Goals supporting Cyrenians

Despite the continued cost-of-living crisis we were truly amazed by the generosity of the general public who kindly gave donations for our Christmas 2024 Appeal as well as everything we received from Churches, Schools, Companies, Shops, Statutory Organisations, Voluntary Groups & Charities. These were financial plus donated food, toiletries, clothing etc. We were able to provide 250 Christmas Dinners & gifts to our guests, plus gifts for 141 Service Users.

We would like to a say big thank you to:
