Scarborough business calls for donations to help two charities this Christmas

Andrea Mason and Sue Watts from Central Property Lettings are collecting donations for The Rainbow Centre and Saint Catherine’s Hospice this Christmas to make things a little easier for those facing a difficult time.

Ms Mason said: “We decided to put a message out on Facebook to collect some tins and packets of dried food and things with long shelf lives on it so that it doesn’t get used straight away to give to the Rainbow Centre.

“A friend of mine has brought in 12 selection boxes and a couple of brand new toys for the Rainbow Centre.

“We have also had a bit of cash donated as well, so we thought that we’d take the money to the Saint Catherine’s Hospice as we know they’re struggling a little bit.”

Donations of tins and non-perishable goods are being accepted until Wednesday December 16.

Cash donations for the hospice can be donated via Central Property Lettings at any time.

To donate, contact either Andrea Mason or Sue Watts via their emails at [email protected] or [email protected] to arrange for donations to be collected or a time to drop them off at the office.

Ms Mason said: “We’d be very grateful for any contributions of cash or non-perishable goods.”
