Reflecting on another Christmas wrap day with our volunteers and trustees ✨ Our annual Christmas wrap day allows us to wrap 3500 presents for people living in poverty. This year we supported over 60 charities across the UK and Ireland by sending gifts for their beneficiaries. None of this is possible without support from our friends, volunteers and trustees. Here’s what they had to say about the experience. At Beauty Banks we believe in paying a gesture of kindness forward. If you wish to support our mission, it’s super easy to donate via text. Just text BEAUTY5 to donate £5, BEAUTY10 to donate £10 and so on, to 70490*. The maximum donation via text is £20, so if you’d like to give more, please donate online (https://www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-beauty-banks). Thank you! *Texts cost the chosen donation amount plus one standard network rate message #BeautyBanks
