Underprivileged children in Bury can expect boxes brimming with gifts this Christmas thanks to the team at Hollybank Care Home and the copious donations they have received. Present filled shoeboxes, lovingly gift wrapped by staff and compiled by residents at Hollybank, will land on the doorsteps of struggling families across the Bury and Radcliffe area this Christmas. The Facebook appeal, headed by carers Jessica Filidoro and Mandy Bennet, has been met with a phenomenal response. Jessica said: “I’ve had nearly a hundred messages on Facebook. I didn’t even think I’d get enough to fill five boxes but here I am 60 boxes later.”
