Chocolate eggs
We are pleased to offer families the opportunity to collect chocolate eggs, donated by supporters, from our sites during events, meetings, or at their convenience. Please do not turn up to collect your chocolate eggs until you have been notified that they are available for collection.
While we understand this change from home delivery may be different, it allows us to reach even more families and create wonderful moments together. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you at our collection points!
