Season's Giftings

With the festive period around the corner, there will be families and individuals with little to no respite from the burden of trying to stay safe, secure and healthy.

Everyone should be able to put food on the table and keep warm โ€” but costs for essential items, such as household goods and food, are still too high for so many.

For Romany, Irish Traveller and site residents, gas bottles are absolutely vital for warming your home and cooking food, and yet the cost of gas bottles currently stands at around ยฃ100 just for a week's worth.

At Friends, Families and Travellers, we work around the year to help alleviate the pressures of everyday life for many Romany, Roma and Traveller people, through our brilliant on-the-ground Service Delivery team who run pan-Sussex outreach and a National Helpline.

This year, we want to spread some extra special holiday cheer, with your help!

We have created a bespoke series of 'gifts' that you can give to Romany or Traveller families in Sussex, whether it's a toy to open on Christmas or a gas bottle to ensure a family can stay warm through the colder days.
