Gift donation as part of Elf Academy

Help us support local children's charities this Christmas

As part of our Elf Academy Christmas event, we ask young recruits to bring along a book with them (this can be a pre-loved book in a good condition or a brand new book - whichever you prefer!) that can be donated to local children's charities.

This is a fantastic and eco-friendly way for us to show our support for amazing local organisations who are supporting families during a particularly difficult time. And it's also a great lesson for Elf Academy recruits to learn about the spirit of kindness and generosity.

The donation forms part of the overall experience, with the recruits learning to wrap and label their gifted books. Our Head Elf (AKA learning manager Joanne!) then takes them to our chosen charities where they help to make a huge difference to a local family's Christmas.
