Local holiday homes manufacturer donates Christmas presents to families in need

Victory Leisure Homes, the East Yorkshire holiday homes manufacturer, has donated various Christmas treats to local family crisis intervention charity Bundles of Joy to support vulnerable families over the festive period.

The items have been donated by colleagues at both the Gilberdyke and Hull sites. These items are now on their way via Bundles of Joy to families across Hull and East Yorkshire so that children and teenagers can celebrate Christmas with treats and presents to open on the big day.

Gary Corlyon, managing director of Victory Leisure Homes, said: “No matter our circumstances, everyone deserves to celebrate Christmas.

“The recent pandemic showed us all just how important the feeling of community is, so the whole team at Victory were more than happy to bring in all things festive to help those that might not have the means to give presents and celebrate this year.”

Victory is a big supporter of Bundles of Joy, having previously donating the entirety of its prop inventory to the charity.

Gillian McKenna, trustee and volunteer at Bundles of Joy, added: “Many families in our local community are already finding it difficult to make ends meet, and Christmas, rather than being the happy occasion it should be, can pile on additional pressure and stress. We are incredibly grateful to the team at Victory for their continued support and for helping us to make the festive season special for the children we support, who might otherwise go without presents or treats on Christmas Day.”

With Christmas fast approaching, Bundles of Joy is helping families that are going to find Christmas particularly hard this year. The charity is accepting donations of chocolate advent calendars, selection boxes, Christmas chocolate treats, and new toys and gifts for boys and girls for all ages from newborn up to 16 years until Monday 13 December.
