Three Ways to Celebrate Christmas with Oracle
Ways to support Oracle as the year draws to a close
This year Christmas is feeling that extra bit festive, and we’re delighted to be able to share with you that special feeling. We’ve put together three ways that you can get involved this season, and help our work continue into 2022 and beyond.
The Big Give Christmas Appeal
We’re delighted to be chosen once again to be participating in The Big Give, the annual Christmas Challenge that matches all donations given to us, this week happening from November 30th to December 7th. If you are able to, any amount you can give this year will mean so well received, not just by us but by the whole head & neck cancer community that we represent. It’s easy to donate, just donate here during the appeal week.
Glory of Christmas
We’re delighted our Glory of Christmas carol concert is making a return, this year at St. Pauls Knightsbridge on Wednesday, December 8th at 7pm. We have a special offer, where each ticket purchased for the evening makes it possible for us to offer free places to nursing and support staff who work with head and neck cancer patients. It’s a way that you can give thanks after what has been a difficult twelve months, and to say thank you for all of the hard work.
We’re so happy to say that this year, after 2020’s first digital production, that 2021’s event will also be live-streamed, so if you are unable to join us in person, you’ll still be able to make an evening of it. Just settle into the comfort of your living room and we’ll look forward to welcoming you there. You can buy tickets here.
Oracle Christmas Cards
If you’re joining us in Knightsbridge on the night you’ll also be able to pick up a pack of our beautiful Christmas cards, an Oracle first, something we are so pleased to have brought out. Three artists were picked from our competition entries, each with a unique, beautiful look, and you can pick up a pack on the night for just £6.99 for 8 cards. They are also available to purchase online or if you live locally to Fulham, send an email and we can arrange a time for you to collect your cards from our office.
We’re incredibly thankful for the help that we have been given this year, and we have some exciting plans for 2022, all only possible due to your kind donations. If there is any way that you can support us during this festive season, we are so appreciative of your support. We have every intention of carrying this goodwill into the new year as we look to strengthen our work on the fight against head and neck cancers.
