Can you warm a child’s heart by giving a gift this Christmas? Mersey Cares, our dedicated NHS charity has launched its 2025 Secret Santa Appeal to give a gift to children and young people accessing our services this Christmas time.
Christmas can be a difficult time for many families across the region, but our appeal seeks to spread a little festive magic, warming the hearts of the children we care for. Gifts have been carefully selected by the staff who look after the children and young people and include worry bears, toiletries and comfort items as well as books and gift cards – so they can choose a festive treat for themselves. You also have the option to make a donation to the appeal and we will choose a gift on your behalf.
By giving a gift you'll be supporting children accessing our Children in Care teams, Children and Young People’s Mental Health Services (CAMHS), the Carer Engagement Team as well as the Specialist Perinatal Service and Heath Visiting teams across Cheshire and Merseyside.
