Because Childhood Can’t Wait: Help Children in Need This Christmas

Introduction

This festive season, thousands of families across Wales are facing challenges no child should ever experience. With 40% of children under five living in relative poverty20% of households unable to afford nutritious food, and 45% expected to be in fuel poverty this winter, the need for support has never been more urgent.

At a time of year that should be filled with warmth, excitement, and togetherness, too many children are instead waking up cold, hungry, and anxious.
Your support can change that.
Your donation can provide more than a gift—it can offer warmth, stability, and the chance for a child to thrive.


How Your Support Helps

At Home-Start Cymru, we work alongside families every day, offering compassionate, non-judgmental support during their most difficult moments. This Christmas, your generosity can:

  • Provide a warm, safe environment for children who might otherwise face a cold home.
  • Ensure families have access to nutritious food, helping parents provide proper meals during the toughest months.
  • Offer emotional and practical support for parents, through the friendship and guidance of our trained volunteers.

Every contribution—large or small—brings families a little closer to safety, stability, and hope.
Your gift today could mean that a child wakes up on Christmas morning feeling loved, supported, and safe.
