Sleigh2Give 2018

Proudly Sponsored by

Our annual festive appeal, 'Sleigh2Give', is back for a fourth year. Each year this special heartwarming campaign is all about spreading cheer, joy and smiles to the young patients and their siblings at the Oxford Children's Hospital (CHOX). We are proud to have award-winning Go Green Taxis as our appeal's official sponsor yet again.

"Go Green Taxis are very proud to sponsor and support such a worthwhile campaign that really makes a difference to the children within our local community. We love to be a part of the community and to support local charities and so we are very honoured to be a part of Play2Give's festive campaign. Go Green Taxis Ltd

Thanks to the tremendous support and generosity of the Oxfordshire community - ranging from Didcot schools, Sainsbury's and Tesco customers in Didcot, a range of Oxfordshire companies and individuals, and groups, more gifts than ever was received in 2017 smashing 2016's record of 3,000. These were delivered a week before Christmas to three of the CHOX wards - Kamran's (cancer) Ward; Melanie's (teenage) Ward and the Bellhouse-Drayson Ward.

This year's donations will be delivered to the Children's Hospital on Sunday December 16th. All donations will need to be received by December 14th latest. *Gifts are preferred unwrapped. (If wrapped, please label boy or girl & age range)*
