Each year on Christmas Day, Jacksons Lane Theatre throws open their doors and hosts a Christmas meal for older and disabled people in the area, who would otherwise be spending Christmas Day alone.
Guests arrive through the generosity of volunteer drivers and enjoy a hot Christmas meal, a drink or two, some fantastic entertainment, gifts, and a visit from Santa!
The day is entirely volunteer-led. For many volunteers, helping out here has become as much of a tradition in their families as stockings, carols and cold turkey sandwiches on Boxing Day.
The theatre have been holding this Christmas Day event for over 40 years. They rely on donations to make this wonderful event happen each year; for every guest attending we need to fundraise £20. We hope you agree that this is a great and worthwhile cause, and if you are able to make a donation to support our Christmas Day project, then please do.
There is an FAQ document which should answer any queries you may have about Christmas Day available to download below.
