For the second Christmas running, Barton Grange Garden Centre is helping to raise much-needed funds for Preston-based disability charity skiggleuk 🔔
in 2021 with a desire to raise awareness of people living with disabilities and make sure their voices were being heard. A Christmas bell bauble was conceived, and due to its success, has been extended this year to raise funds for even more charities.Skiggle – the only charity of its kind in the UK – provides vital help and support to people with disabilities, their families, and carers.
The unique charity was founded by Christine Singleton and Helen Taylor when Christine urgently needed to get hold of spare milk feed for her profoundly disabled son, James. Being away from home, she had nowhere to turn and didn’t ever want to imagine other people experiencing the same feeling of panic and distress in future similar situations. Hence the concept of developing Skiggle – a community of members who share or gift, unused, unopened items to those in need.
Christine added: “Having the support of the amazing people at Barton Grange for the second Christmas in succession means the world to us. We’ve visited their sparkling Christmas wonderland as a family for many years and if we could encourage visitors this year to add an extra charity bell to their shopping, a small disability charity would be hugely grateful.”
£2 from the purchase of every Skiggle Christmas bell at Barton Grange Garden Centre will be donated to the disability charity. Bells can also be purchased directly from
