Sending gift

Hi
Hope you can help, usually we send a gift to a serving member with little or no family, was always through a friend at the church so would just buy, wrap and hand over the box and job done.
This year I have moved away from the UK [I am in Ireland] and my friend has died but I would like to do the same this year if I could so if anyone who knows someone who needs a gift and how I can send it I would be grateful if you could help me.
I know they don't want random boxes for anyone as it clogs the system so want to avoid that
TIA

That's a lovely thought canyou, but the problem is you need the service number and name etc of an individual in order to send them a box - even if I knew someone I would really not be comfortable giving those details to a stranger from the internet. Have you looked at the other options for shoes boxes at the bottom of this page

Thanks leonard I knew some one would point me in the right direction. It was never an issue before as my lovely friend would take our gift he was Fijian and very active with the young men who came over to join the UK FORCES . I did not want to just hand some thing over and it interfere with family mail etc
