Travel agents collect festive goodies for hampers

The three travel agencies in the Holiday With Us Group are collecting seasonal treats and food for hampers that will go to local families in need this Christmas.

The Holiday With Us branches in March and Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, and their sister agency – Spalding Travel in Lincolnshire – are asking clients to donate food, toys and toiletries, as well as festive treats such as Christmas cakes, mince pies and chocolates.

Lisa Shepherd, office manager at the Spalding Travel branch, said: “For the last few years, the Holiday With Us Group has provided Christmas hampers to those we support throughout the year in the local community.

“We will be providing Christmas hampers again this year, working with Agape Care Foodbank Spalding which many in our community rely on for essential food items on a weekly basis.

“The hampers will be packed with items a family needs for Christmas, including food and toiletries.”

The March and Wisbech agencies will be working with their local Salvation Army branches to deliver hampers to those in need.

The independent agency group is part of the Freedom Travel Group.
