Falkirk store ends the year as it began - helping the community
A store in Falkirk Central Retail has been doing its bit to help people all year despite closing due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Dunelm is nearing the end of its Delivering Joy campaign, which aims to deliver gifts across the area to those less fortunate this Christmas.
The store has so far collected 16,254 shoe boxes of gift donations from customers and is now preparing to deliver them to those who need them most.
A store spokesperson said: “We’re busy sanitising, wrapping and organising all the generous shoe box donations kindly gifted by all of you. Thank you so much for your generosity.”
Back in May Duelm organised a charity baking challenge to help MacMillan Cancer Support and at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic – while the store was forced to close its doors – members of staff sewed and stitched laundry bags for NHS workers, delivered care packages to care homes and did lots more to make people’s lives better during a difficult year.
