A Suffolk store has launched a scheme to help ensure those living in a west Suffolk town receive a Christmas present.

The Bury St Edmunds branch in Dunelm is partnering with local organisations, including the Suffolk Baby Bank and The Food Pantry Feltwell for its Delivering Joy initiative.

The organisations will submit Christmas gift wishes, which will be put on tags at the store.

Customers can pick up a tag, buy the gift, and drop it off at the store.

Dunelm will ensure the gifts are delivered in time for Christmas.

Amanda Cox, people and stores director at Dunelm, said: “Each year, we are amazed by the generosity of our customers and colleagues who come together to make a real difference in their local communities.

"This initiative has become a powerful reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a significant difference, especially when so many are feeling the ongoing effects of the cost-of-living crisis.” 

Any tags not fulfilled by mid-December will be funded by Dunelm, ensuring no one is left out this Christmas."
