You are invited to either donate physical gifts or to make a donation online, providing much-needed support to three local charities. Each charity has provided a wish list of items that would benefit their work - details of these items will be written on the gift tags on our Christmas Wish Tree.
This year’s charities were chosen by representatives from Durham Students’ Union:
DASH independent charity that provides accommodation with support to people who are homeless or about to become homeless in County Durham.
RSACC - offering free, confidential and specialist support to sexual violence survivors in Darlington and County Durham.
