Help with Christmas advice needed

Hiya.

im struggling more than ever this year and usually I try and get a couple of things a month so Christmas can be enjoyed.

does anybody know of any charities or organisations that help? I’ve tried googling but to registered for things like that it seems like social services need to be aware and that’s shocked me.

My child is not flagged with SS and doesn’t need to be as she has a great life it’s just simply that I don’t have it spare anymore and cant keep up but she’s fed and clothed, it’s just the extravagance of Christmas I need help with.

thank you x

You can pick things up cheaply on Temu. It takes a bit longer to arrive but things like character PJ's and craft things are fine. Order several weeks ahead and it will arrive in time for Xmas. Supermarkets also sell veg very cheap at Xmas so get that as soon as you see it.
