Westville is proud to support From The Heart, our chosen Christmas charity for 2025. Based in Worksop and founded eight years ago by Heather McGlone, this incredible organisation is dedicated to helping families facing hardship and ensuring children don’t go without.
From The Heart provides food camps, school holiday meals, summer camps, clothing, school uniforms and even furniture, all completely free. Each Christmas, they work with local businesses to make sure children aged 0–18 receive gifts they might otherwise miss out on. What began with helping one child has grown into something extraordinary. This year, they are on track to give over 500 children a sack of presents, along with Christmas Eve packs filled with treats for the night before the big day.
To support their amazing work, the Westville team chose to swap our usual Secret Santa gifts and instead buy toys and presents for the charity. A small gesture that will make Christmas morning brighter for so many young people.
