Operation Christmas Child 2022

Operation Christmas Child 2022

We have sent hundreds of Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes filled with gifts around the globe over the past few years and this year our efforts will be even more poignant as the Charity have announced that this year the goal is to send two-thirds of shoeboxes from the UK to Ukraine or the neighbouring countries that are hosting.

Our firm, Amos Estates are supporting The Samaritans Purse Christmas Child appeal again this year by purchasing boxes for generous members of our community to fill with gifts for youngsters in need across the globe. This year the organisers have announced that the majority collected will be distributed within Ukraine itself and the neighbouring countries where those displaced by the invasion are currently living.


You can collect a branded shoebox from our offices at 319 London Road and 1A Spa Road and then return them filled before collection week from the 14th to 20th November.
