You can bring smiles to the faces of Mahdlo members and help make this festive season one to remember. Mahdlo Youth Zone is launching its annual festive fundraising campaign and needs the support from the local community to help make this Christmas one to remember for its members.

Local people and businesses can buy a bauble that will be proudly displayed on the Mahdlo Christmas tree from just £25.

Lucy Lees, Deputy CEO told us “Christmas should be a fun time for everyone and through helping decorate our tree you will be providing a festive season of parties and aspirational activities ensuring young people in Oldham have the best Christmas that they deserve.”

Tom Finnegan, MD at Washtech, added “we are pleased to help Mahdlo and kick off this year’s fundraising with a £100 donation. It’s a great charity that does so much for the local community and Christmas is a special time that should be enjoyed be everyone.”

Claire Crossfield commented “last year’s campaign was really successful and we’re hoping to reach our target of £2,500. We are incredibly grateful of the support of local people and businesses and I know they’ll help us do it again. It’s really easy for people to donate and their names will be proudly displayed on our tree again this year.”
