Gift requests for Silver Santa 2025 – Please stick a label on the gift telling us what is in it so we can make sure it gets to an appropriate person – otherwise we have to open the gift to see and then re-wrap. (we once had a toothless gentleman open a new toothbrush and toiletry kit- he did see the funny side bless him ????) – and do feel free to include a written Christmas card from yourself and your family. Residents love to get these. I always put ‘To a lovely lady (or gentleman) at Christmas’. Thank you to all at Anson Primary School for your thoughtfulness and generosity to others ( Examples of gifts appreciated are below. |
