About

The Christmas Meal project started in 2012 at Imagine If Trust, in response to the massive need we saw through the community outreach projects.

​

Originally set up to welcome homeless people on Christmas day, we quickly realised that there where many others in need over the Christmas period, so we decided to welcome anyone who found themselves lonely, isolated or in poverty on Christmas day.

​

Each year, the Christmas meal grew from strength to strength, feeding an average of around 250 people, providing gifts, games, entertainment and transport for our guests.

​

Now 10 years on, The Hope Foundation will be taking over the operations of The Christmas Meal, while still partnering with Imagine If Trust and other agencies and businesses across the city. Not only to host one meal but to host meals all across the city to ensure that nobody has to be alone over the Christmas period.
