Christmas Shoebox Appeal

Clothing Coventry and Carriers of Hope are working together to ensure no child goes without this Christmas.

We are inviting families across the city to think beyond their own family and pack a shoebox for a child in need.

Please start packing shoeboxes now, and talking to your local community about getting involved with shoebox production, but please don’t bring them to us until 1st – 16th December.

Full details of drop locations coming soon

What to pack?

The most common question we get asked is what to include in a shoebox.

Think of the shoebox as a stocking, and think about what you would put in a child’s stocking.

Sweets,
Fidget toys,
Small teddy or doll,
Musical instrument,
Jewellery,
Smellies,
Headphones,
Pack of cards,
Small games like uno,
