Fill a Stocking This Christmas - Join Agents Giving Food Bank Drive
Dear all,
During the festive season, many families across the UK struggle to afford even basic essentials, and rising living costs mean more households are relying on food banks than ever before. To help provide practical support at a challenging time of year, we’re inviting our network to take part in the Agents Giving Christmas & Winter Stocking Campaign 2025.
This initiative encourages offices to donate festive food items to local food banks, including those within the Trussell Trust network. By filling a Christmas stocking or gift bag with suitable treats, you can help ensure that families in need receive something extra alongside their standard food parcels.
How to get involved
1. Choose a Christmas stocking or gift bag
Each office is encouraged to prepare one or more stockings or bags to donate.
2. Fill it with suitable festive items
Food banks appreciate non-perishable seasonal treats that families may not otherwise be able to enjoy. Suggested items include:
Boxes of chocolates
Tubes of sweets or chocolates
Hanging tree chocolates
Chocolate coins
Christmas crackers
Christmas cakes
Festive biscuits
Christmas puddings
Please ensure all items are non-perishable and within their use-by dates.
3. Deliver your stocking to your local food bank
Once your office has collected everything, drop the filled stocking or bag at your nearest food bank. You may also wish to involve your wider community or local businesses to increase the number of donations.
If you’re unsure where your nearest food bank is, the Trussell Trust online locator can help. Agents Giving can also assist in identifying local drop-off points if you want to sign up to the campaign please fill in the form at the bottom of this page.
