Xmas Act of Kindness

November 17th, 2022

The Xmas Act of Kindness campaign is back in 2022!

This ‘Act of Kindness‘ is aimed at HGV drivers working away from home over Christmas. This is a difficult time for them, as they will be away from their families, spending Xmas on their own, in their cabs.

Some HGV drivers will continue to work throughout the Christmas period to make sure we can all get food and presents at the shops. Delivering unexpected gifts to them on Christmas Day is a small way that we can show our appreciation and gratitude.

Since 2019 we have been appealing to individuals and local businesses to support our Xmas Act of Kindness. It’s just a small gesture to show the HGV drivers respect and appreciation for their vital role in the industry.

During the Covid pandemic truck drivers were rightfully praised for their efforts in delivering essential goods to hospitals, shops and manufacturers.

But as the country gradually returned to normal, the importance of this profession has faded.

Can you help?

This year again, we are asking for donations that we will later distribute among drivers at local truck stops and loading bays. You can donate food and basic items that drivers might find useful whilst on the road.

If you would like to support our Xmass Act of Kindness with your donations, please get in touch. For more details or to arrange a collection, please email Damian at damian@nn1personnel.co.uk. You can also drop off your donations at our office on Wellingborough Road, Northampton.

NN1 Personnel has also set up a GoFundMe page for anyone willing to donate money to our Christmas appeal. The funds raised will go towards buying food, gift cards, toiletries and other items drivers will find helpful at this time of year.

We would be pleased to hear from anyone who wants to help deliver food and gifts to drivers on Christmas Day. We would also love you to help us spread the word. The more donations we receive, the more HGV drivers we will be able to support with our Xmas Act of Kindness.

If you would like to support our Christmas Act of Kindness with donations, please get in touch. You can drop them off at our office on Wellingborough Road, Northampton, until Friday, December 17th. If you would like more details or to arrange a collection, please email Damian at damian@nn1personnel.co.uk.

Last year we managed to raise £630 via the GoFundMe page and received a lot of other donations from local supporters. One of our clients kindly lent us their Van for the day, which was much appreciated as it helped run our campaign smoothly.

Please help us to show the true Christmas spirit to our fellow truck drivers who are miles away from their families and friends.
