Easter Egg Appeal 2023 - How Can I Help?

A few weeks ago, we officially launched our Easter appeal where we ask for community donations of Easter eggs to gift to our local vulnerable children and remind them that they are not forgotten. We need your help to make it possible!

No, it's not just chocolate

Although we deliver the selection boxes to social workers and care groups every Christmas, we do not get to see first-hand the children’s pure reactions when receiving the gifts. Thus, we have asked for some feedback to demonstrate how special these chocolate gifts are for the children.

That's a wrap everyone!

This Christmas, we received a request of 3770 selection boxes to gift to our local vulnerable children. Thanks to everyone’s amazing contribution to support our appeal, we managed to fulfill every single request and gifted all 3770 chocolate goodies to different social workers and care groups to distribute to thousands of children across the East Midlands.

It's not Christmas at Forget-Me-Notts without selection boxes

We received the request of 1085 selection boxes for our first distribution and thanks to all of your support, we have successfully supplied all 1085 chocolate gifts to give out to 1085 vulnerable kids! Woohoo!
