Members of the St Vincent de Paul (SVP) Society from the Most Holy Name of Jesus, Oundle, St Paul’s, Thrapston, and St Thomas More, Raunds, have been busy spreading festive cheer in the local community. Volunteers packed gifts generously donated by parishioners across the Cluster as part of the Caritas Love Christmas campaign 2025.

The presents, now ready for distribution, are going to families supported by the SVP throughout the year, alongside long-standing beneficiaries who rely on the Society’s ongoing assistance. The effort was fuelled by tea and mince pies, keeping spirits high as members carefully prepared each gift package.

The Caritas Love campaign continues to highlight the power of community support, reminding local families that they are not alone during the Christmas season.
