Hawes & Co launches Festive Foodbank campaign

At Hawes & Co., the holiday season is about more than just decorations and celebrations—it’s a chance to make a difference. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our Festive Foodbank Campaign! Running from early November until Wednesday, December 18th, this campaign encourages our community, including customers, staff, and local residents, to help bring a little holiday magic to families in need.

What We’re Collecting

Our focus this year is on collecting Christmas chocolate selection boxes, a simple treat that can bring so much joy. By donating one of these, you’re helping ensure that every child has a sweet surprise to unwrap this Christmas. It’s a small gesture, but it can mean the world to a family facing financial hardship during the holiday season.

A Tradition of Community Support

With roots stretching back nearly 140 years, Hawes & Co. has always been committed to the well-being of our local communities in South West London. From litter picking and supporting food banks to sponsoring events for local schools and clubs, our mission is to give back in meaningful ways. The Festive Foodbank Campaign is just one more way we’re working to make a positive impact.

Why We Do It

As John Adams, our Operations Director, explains, “We’ve always been passionate about supporting our communities, especially during the festive season. This campaign is a small way to help make Christmas a little brighter for local families, and we invite everyone to join us in this effort.”

How You Can Help

Getting involved is easy! Simply drop off a Christmas chocolate selection box at any of our four branches in Raynes Park, Surbiton, Wimbledon Broadway, and Wimbledon Village. Every contribution counts, and together, we can make a real difference for families in our area.
