The Giving Tree is Back!
The Season of Giving
We are delighted to be partnering with HEALS of Malmesbury once again to collect presents for nearly 200 children in and around the town, who would not otherwise have a Christmas gift.
Last year, The Old Bell Hotel successfully collected over 100 presents for local children that were then wrapped and distributed by HEALS of Malmesbury.
The concept is simple. To get involved, all guests need to do is take a gift label from the Giving Tree that is located in the entrance hall of The Old Bell Hotel, buy a gift that corresponds to the label (it will be for a child aged between 0 and 18 years of age) and then drop the gift along with the label to the reception team who will pass on the presents to the wonderful team at HEALS for wrapping and distribution!
But guests need to be quick: the deadline for handing in gifts is 13th December, so that the HEALS team has plenty of time to get the presents under the different Christmas trees.
As Owner of The Old Bell Hotel Kim Hanks, says, “HEALS of Malmesbury is a small charity doing big things! Partnering with them to ensure that every child receives a gift this Christmas truly fills our hearts with joy. Supporting our incredible local community is something we, and everyone working at The Old Bell Hotel, deeply value. Thank you, HEALS of Malmesbury, for once again filling the hearts of families with hope this Christmas season.”
Together, we can make a difference in our community this Christmas!
