This Christmas, 1 in 3 children will be living in poverty in some parts of the Wirral meaning they may go without a present, food or a warm bed.

Just like every child is unique, so is what they want for Christmas. This is why we are kindly asking for donations to our Believe campaign this year to make sure they get what they want, need and deserve.

Your support will help us provide hot meals, presents, Christmas hampers, warm clothing and a safe place for young people and their families struggling this year.

+ £9.90 could pay for an hours support to help a young person to believe in themselves

+ £31 could pay for a hot meal throughout December for a young person at risk of going hungry

+ £100 could pay for a year to remember for one young person by covering the cost of their annual membership, session costs and provide a hot meal on every visit to The Hive

The Hive exists to help young people feel happy, healthy and to thrive with their community. Always putting young people first, we combine high quality youth work with inspiring activities in an inclusive, safe space. The Hive provides the opportunities, knowledge and confidence to make positive choices, raising aspirations for individuals and their communities.

We encourage young people in your community to Believe in their ability and be the best version of themselves. We need your help to give young people the Christmas they deserve this year - thank you so very much for any donations to help us be there for so many children and their families.
