Easter Appeal 2026

It’s launched — our sixth Easter Egg Appeal is live for another cracking campaign. Help us make 2026 an eggscellent year as we spread Easter cheer, joy, and smiles with a record collection.

We eggcelled ourselves in 2025 with a record‑breaking haul, and now we’re hoping to make 2026 another spring cracker.

Last year, more than 1,700 eggs were donated, bringing joy to hospitals, hospices, vulnerable individuals, and families facing hardship.

Thanks to your continued kindness, we can keep spreading Easter cheer to children and families in hospital, those in hospices, and people going through difficult times.

2025 Easter Appeal Success

We did it!

We egg‑celled ourselves with an all‑new record in 2025. Thanks to your kind generosity and incredible support, our fifth appeal topped a record 1,700 Easter eggs.

This year, the response was even more eggstraordinary than ever before. Not only were we able to distribute over 1,720 Easter eggs, but we were also able to provide art and craft activity packs so that no one missed out.

Across five years of Easter egg drives, we’ve collected and given out around 4,250 eggs — a great big thank you to all the supporters who have made each Easter drive such a success.

4,200 Easter eggs donated since 2020

Again this year, we want to spread cheer, joy, and smiles at Easter by gathering as many chocolate eggs and treats as we can for young patients in Oxford Children’s Hospital, the siblings and families staying in the neonatal care unit at the JR through SSNAP, and those supported by Sobell House Hospice. We also want to reach children and adults with disabilities, as well as vulnerable and less fortunate members of our community, by raising Easter spirit — and we can only do it with the warm‑hearted support of our local community.

Big hearted gym members donate over 1,000 eggs

Even fitness fanatics have big hearts — and they’ve proved it time and time again. Since 2020, gym members have donated over 1,000 Easter eggs.

Snap Fitness in Didcot collects every year, as do PureGym branches across the county, contributing healthy amounts of eggs and showing that people working out can have wonderfully kind‑hearted natures too. Our Easter egg amnesty began in 2020 with a first‑time collection at PureGym Didcot, and since then the appeal has really taken off and continues to grow each year, spreading the joy of Easter eggs far and wide.

Donate online

For every donation made online (and with Gift Aid added)  each pound helps us purchase Easter eggs, enabling us to spread cheer, joy, and smiles. Thank you for your generosity.

From dance schools to sports parks, to shops and gyms — everyone is eggscellent!

Our Easter egg campaigns have received such eggscellent generosity — and even children’s dance schools take part too.

In 2025, Step in Time and Angels Performing Arts collected almost 120 eggs, and over the years they’ve contributed 600+. Their support — along with so many groups, businesses, and individuals — helps our appeal thrive year after year.
