We’re delighted to launch our sixth annual Easter Egg Appeal, bringing smiles, colour and kindness to children, families and vulnerable people across our community.
Every year, our supporters prove just how generous Oxfordshire can be. Last year’s appeal was our biggest yet, with an egg‑credible 1,720+ Easter eggs and chocolate treats donated by individuals, schools, businesses and community groups. Your kindness made a huge difference to children in hospital, families facing difficult times, and adults receiving specialist care.
This year, we’re hoping to match – or even surpass – that amazing response, and we’d love your help.
How You Can Get Involved
We’re inviting you to donate:
- Easter eggs
- Chocolate treats
- Easter‑themed arts and crafts activity packs
Your donations will be shared with:

- Siblings and families supported by SSNAP (Support for the Sick Newborn and their Parents)
