Despite cold and damp weather, the festive atmosphere in Culver Square drew crowds eager to support this vital cause and enjoy the Christmas festivities. Our event featured an exciting raffle with prizes generously donated by local businesses, and special guests Ant and Dec – a pair of reindeer who delighted children and adults alike.

Funds raised  

The funds we raised will go directly towards providing essential items including formula, nappies, wipes, and clothing to families struggling across the area. Tots2Teens supports children from newborns right through to teenagers, ensuring no child goes without the basics they need to thrive.

Founder, Debbie Humphrey  

"We're overwhelmed by the generosity of our local business community," said Debbie.. "The raffle prizes drew considerable interest and enthusiasm from attendees, and the atmosphere was truly special. Every penny raised will make a real difference to vulnerable families during these challenging times."

Thank you  

We'd like to extend special thanks to Palmer & Partners Estate and Lettings Agents, Essex Mortgages and Fisher Jones Greenwood Solicitors, who covered the cost of bringing reindeer Ant and Dec to our event. The duo proved a highlight of the day, causing much excitement in Culver Square and spreading festive cheer throughout the city centre.

Our event demonstrated the strength of community spirit in Colchester, with local businesses and residents coming together to support those who need it most.
