Help put a smile on a child’s face this Christmas

Leeds Children’s Charity at Lineham Farm is dedicated to brightening children’s lives. For some of the families we support, Christmas as most of us know it is simply not possible, due to finances and other difficulties. Every child deserves to experience joy, and this time of year can be particularly hard on those families already struggling.

Please help us put a smile on a child’s face and hope in the heart of families across Leeds this Festive Season ✨

For those who can help, there’s lot’s of ways to get involved and help make this Christmas magical and memorable for children in Leeds.

Last year, we distributed over 4,000 gifts to children in need across the city!!!

As well as our Gift Appeal, there are lots of other ways you can help support Leeds Children’s Charity at Lineham Farm this Christmas – take a look here.

Christmas Gift Appeal

Deadline 09th December

Thank you for helping to brighten children’s lives this Christmas!

For some of the families we support, Christmas can be low down in priority due to finances and other difficulties, but it is very high when wanting to put a smile on a child’s face and hope in the heart. For those who can help, we’d love you to donate a gift to our appeal, to help those who may not be so fortunate to receive any toys this year.

  • We must ensure all gifts are collected by 09th December to guarantee we can distribute to the many children and families across Leeds.
  • Gifts do not need to be wrapped, but if you’d like to wrap your gift, please may you label it gender and age specific, with a description of the gift.
  • Although we mostly support children from 7-11yrs, we can accept gifts for all ages from toddlers to teenage years (this way we can ensure all family members can receive something)
  • New gifts only please.
