Christmas charity campaign 2016 roundup

13 January 2017
As December 25 draws ever closer, our Christmas charity campaign comes to a close –  just in time for Santa to deliver all the presents collected across the 13 participating Access Self Storage stores. Once again, the Access Self Storage team is overwhelmed by the generosity and support demonstrated by our customers throughout this year’s charity appeal.

We launched our 2016 Christmas charity campaign last month with the aim of collecting as many toys and presents as possible for local charities. Our customers certainly rose to the challenge: with a great selection of gifts, we hope to help bring a touch of Christmas cheer to those less fortunate this holiday season.

Access Self Storage Northampton had another successful Christmas charity campaign, with a number of toys and gifts donated to the Northampton Child Care Team (NCCT).
