Dunelm Carmarthen has announced that its Christmas 2024 Delivering Joy campaign will support the Wish Fund and bring festive joy to children across west Wales.
The Wish Fund creates magical memories for children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families. It is delivered by Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, and supported by Scarlets Rugby.
Delivering Joy is Dunelm’s community-focused Christmas campaign which gives generous shoppers the opportunity to buy a gift for a person in need.
The Dunlem Carmarthen Christmas trees are now in store and are hanging with 350 Wish Fund tags. Each tag provides details of a present requested by a child or young person receiving palliative care.
Kind shoppers and colleagues can take a tag home to fulfil the request before returning their gift to the store by Tuesday, December 10, 2024.
Those unable to get into store can contact Dunelm for further assistance via Dunelm Carmarthen’s Community Facebook Group.
Jo Cheswick from Dunelm Carmarthen said:“Here at Dunelm in Carmarthen this Christmas we are supporting a range of charities by trying to deliver as many gifts as possible to the ones who need them the most.
“We thank everyone for their enthusiasm and contributions towards our Deliver Joy campaign and hope that this one will be our most successfulyet. Don't forget to pop into our store to get your tag today!”
Tara Nickerson, Fundraising Manager at Hywel Dda Health Charities, said: “We want to say a huge thank you to Dunelm Carmarthen for choosing to support the Wish Fund this Christmas.
“We know better than anyone how generous and supportive our local communities are here in west Wales. We can’t wait to deliver all the kind presents to our young patients!”
