The Big Give Christmas Challenge runs for a week from next Tuesday.

The Christmas Challenge utilises Big Give's  ‘pledge’ model of match funding. The Pledge model offers supporters of participating charities the opportunity to double their donations with match funding provided by a charity’s pledgers and Big Give’s Champions.

A multitude of good causes to choose from. Here are some local ones that you might consider donating to:

Chickenshed: Creative Pathways

An inclusive creative training programme, supporting children aged 11-18 years from all educational and social backgrounds to gather skills, knowledge and experiences to support their development as inclusive creative leaders of the future.

Here's another charity participating in the Big Give Christmas Campaign: Living Streets (formerly the Pedestrians Association). They've been campaigning for a better deal for people on foot since the 1930s and it was their campaigning that led to the introduction of zebra crossings and speed limits in built up areas.

While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions
