Schools! We’ll be launching our Advent appeal on 10 November.
Will you join us please and #BeeThere for people in your local community who are facing crisis this Christmas?
Get in touch if you have any questions or need anything else before we launch!
We’re buzzing that our popular Caritas bees are back again this Christmas, and will be shining a spotlight on what’s really important at this time of year – and beyond too.
Our Advent appeal for 2025 will launch on 10 November with a brand new. specially created animation and a whole range of free resources and activities for you to use in school.
Without giving too much away and spoiling the surprise on 10 November, you can expect free downloads including:
- Our animation to show and spark discussions in assembly and lessons
- Activity sheets and ideas on how to bring the themes of the appeal to life
- Stories about people in our local communities who are experiencing poverty, homelessness and discrimination
- Assembly slides
- Prayers
- Certificates to give to pupils who take part
- Social media assets
- And much more…!
Will you join us please and #BeeThere for people in your locally community this Christmas?

Why your support matters
Any of us could experience poverty or homelessness at any time.
More than one in three children in the area we work within in Greater Manchester and Lancashire are living in poverty right now.
Many don’t know whether they’ll have a meal to eat on Christmas Day – some might not even have a roof over their head.
Demand for our services supporting families, children, young people and individuals locally is continuing to grow.
Your support will mean we can #BeeThere for people in your community at a time of acute crisis – and for the long-term too.
However you choose to take part in #BeeThere this year – whether big or small – it can make a huge difference.
Our latest Impact Report shows just some of the ways we’ve been there for local people recently.
Bee ready for launch day!
