I started Smile Sleigh in 2018 having witnessed a need to further support women and children struggling to live with the impact of domestic abuse.
Smile Sleigh has grown over the past 7 years into a very exciting and flourishing initiative.
Through the simple act of giving a gift, Smile Sleigh brings joy to vulnerable families at Christmas & Easter.
Who we help
We help families in Surrey & Hampshire, who are affected by domestic abuse. We work directly with outreach services & refuges to distribute our donated gifts.
How we help
With the help of our amazing supporters, we collect & distribute donations & unwrapped* gifts. We take donations twice a year at Christmas & Easter.
Why we help
1 in 4 women experience domestic abuse during their lifetime. Our voluntary work create smiles during holiday times, which can be hard for affected families to navigate.
Since 2018 our estimated totals are….
Over 7000 gifts donated
Over 600 women & 2000 children supported
