Every Christmas it is easy to get wrapped up in the commercial side of things. Presents, parties and Xmas markets, etc. It is really a time for giving. A time where we should be thinking about the people who are less fortunate than us and how we can help them.<\/p>\n

Every year lots of fantastic work is done up and down the country to help people in need. The amount of work that is done and the opportunities available rises during the festive period and this year is no different, which is great to see. Manchester in particular has some great ways of making sure people are helped this Christmas.<\/p>\n

MANCHESTER<\/h2>\n

Since 2015, official Christmas carols<\/a> have been a tradition at the Manchester Cathedral to raise money for the Royal Children’s Hospital<\/a>. They do fantastic work all year round and funding is vital to allow them to keep doing this.<\/p>\n

Tickets are now on sale for the Christmas Carols in the City concert. It\u2019s a chance to experience an authentic festive choir, and part of the ticket fee goes to those who need it most. It takes place on Thursday 20th December and festive refreshments will be available. Tickets are \u00a36 for children and concessions, \u00a312 for adults.<\/p>\n

The North West city is doing far more than just this over December.\u00a0An estimated 8.4 million people across the country go without adequate food in the winter.<\/a> You can do your bit to help fight hunger and ensure that some of the most vulnerable people in our society have enough to eat this Christmas by joining Team FareShare<\/a> and spending a morning or afternoon in December collecting food donations from your local Tesco store.<\/p>\n

LONDON<\/h2>\n

The capital is also well known for the charitable work over the winter months. There are many elderly people who spend Christmas alone every year. The Rotary Club holds a Christmas day party, for over-65s living in Wandsworth. The wild shindig takes place in Battersea Park. Last year, 450 elderly people who otherwise would have been alone went along.<\/p>\n

Volunteers are needed<\/a> for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, and applications for 2018 are now open. You can do just one, two, or all three days. Jobs include preparing the venue, helping with transport for the guests, serving food, and clearing up afterwards.<\/p>\n

As you can imagine London is packed with great volunteering opportunities. Our friends at Team London\u00a0are the ultimate search tool for volunteering opportunities, ideal when Google lets you down. Type the keyword ‘Christmas’ into the search engine, if you need your volunteering to be festive.<\/p>\n

A few things that caught our eye:\u00a0Christmas bucket collections,<\/a>\u00a0volunteering at a\u00a0Christmas concert<\/a>, or helping out in\u00a0pop-up Christmas shops<\/a>.<\/p>\n
