Donations made by KH Arnold are making a difference!

KH Hair in Arnold has handed over gift donations to the Arnold branch of the Salvation Army to help local families whose children may be at risk of missing out on the joys of Christmas.
The High Street salon appealed to its clients and the local community to help support the Salvation Army’s “Be a Star” Christmas Present Appeal (CPA) which works to ensure local children don’t miss out on the joy of opening a gift on Christmas Day.
Following the appeal, the KH Hair team received a total of two full boxes and three bags filled to the brim with new toys, clothes and more. Salon manager, Helen Stilwell, says: “We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped us gather donations for the Salvation Army’s “Be a Star” charity appeal. Supporting others is something we are deeply passionate about all year but, during Christmas, it feels especially important to spread love and joy to children and adults alike. Thank you so much to everyone for their generosity.”

Last year, the Salvation Army distributed more than 76,000 gifts across the UK as part of the CPA appeal and, this year, the number of families requesting help is expected to rise as a result of the cost of living crisis.
Leader of the Salvation Army in Arnold, Major Janice Lahouel, who collected the gifts from the salon at the end of November, says: “We want to say a massive thanks to KH Hair Arnold and their customers for supporting our Christmas gift appeal. We are extremely grateful for the generosity shown which has provided gifts for needy families in and around Arnold this Christmas. Children who otherwise would have gone without will be able to wake up this Christmas with a smile on their faces and parents will have some of the burden taken away from them. Everyone involved has made a real difference in the lives of those less fortunate this Christmas, so thanks once again.”
If anyone would still like to donate a new, unwrapped gift for a child this Christmas, they will be welcome at the Salvation Army at 99 High Street, or Sally’s charity shop on Front Street in Arnold.
