Home Instead Wigan & Leigh Launches “Be a Santa” Campaign
Be a Santa campaign in Support of Wigan and Leigh Hospice
This Christmas, Home Instead Wigan and Home Instead Leigh are teaming up to spread joy for the heart-warming Be a Santa campaign — bringing festive cheer to older, vulnerable, and lonely people and those receiving care and support through Wigan and Leigh Hospice.
We’re calling on our wonderful community to get involved by donating thoughtful gifts for those who might otherwise go without this Christmas. Every present, big or small, helps spread a little joy and reminds someone that they’re cared for and remembered.
We’re delighted to have Hindley Primary School as one of our main collections points this year, helping us bring the spirit of giving to life and encouraging the community to be part of something truly special. Additionally, both offices will be collecting gifts at the following supermarkets:
- Asda Hindley 20th-21st November
- Tesco Hindley 25th-26th November
- Morrisons Leigh Sports Village
Residents and businesses across Wigan and Leigh are warmly invited to take part — whether by donating gifts, hosting their own mini collection, or simply spreading the word. Together, we can make a real difference this festive season.
How you can help
Here’s how you can get involved:
Donate a gift: Drop off an unwrapped present at Hindley Primary School or one of our offices (see details below)
Spread the word: Share our campaign on social media, tell your friends and family, or even organise a mini gift collection in your workplace.
Every gift, every share, and every small act of kindness helps make Christmas a little brighter for the older people in our community.
If you’d like to donate a gift or get involved, please contact Home Instead Wigan or Home Instead Leigh for more details. Let’s make this Christmas one to remember for those who need it most.
Be a Santa — because a small act of kindness can mean the world.
