Spare a thought for others this Christmas

Christmas is a special time of the year most of us will be celebrating with our families and friends.

But across Kirklees and this country, in many households they will be struggling to make ends meet.

These are tough times for families, where employment is uncertain or who are struggling to pay household bills.

Christmas can be a difficult time for people who are alone, separated from their loved ones, or those who are homeless or hungry.

So as you gather around the festive table next week, please spare a thought for those working in food banks who are doing all they can to bring some Christmas joy to those struggling most this Christmas. We should be grateful to them all.

I would like to wish you and your families a very merry and peaceful Christmas.

Regards
