This winter, The Salvation Army is hard at work throughout Torbay preparing over 250 Christmas Hampers for families and individuals suffering poverty this Christmas.

The Salvation Army has an over 130 year history in Torbay and is still committed in 2019 to being at the forefront of social justice and providing tangible support to those most in need across the bay. “Our Christmas present appeal is currently in full swing”, said Community Manager Andy Bichard. “Working alongside The Entertainer, Argos, Sainsburys and the generosity of the public we will be disturbing over 200 toys to 0-16 year olds, as well as the Christmas food Hampers that will give families and individuals the opportunity to make up a Christmas dinner and have something to eat over the Christmas period.
