This Christmas season, we’re proud and excited to share news that truly reflects what The Principle Trust stands for – compassion, community, and making memories that last for children and families who need it most.
We are delighted to announce a brand-new partnership with Brick Multibank, who have generously donated thousands of pounds worth of toys, games, household items, and essentials for our respite homes across Yorkshire.
For families facing trauma, disability, poverty, abuse, poor mental health or life-changing challenges, Christmas can be an overwhelming and emotional time. A break in one of our respite homes offers much more than time away, it offers breathing space, healing, and the chance to simply be a family again.
Thanks to this incredible donation, our homes will not only be welcoming and comfortable, they’ll be filled with festive joy.
What the Donation Includes
Brick Multibank’s contribution features a wonderful mix of items designed to support both practical needs and magical moments:
Toys and games – bringing seasonal joy, laughter, and the chance to create new memories
Kitchenware and home essentials – helping families feel settled, supported and truly at home during their stay
Other everyday items – easing the financial burden and making life just that little bit easier
These items will be used across our respite homes, giving families additional comfort and children a chance to experience joy during a time where joy may otherwise feel far away.
A Partnership Built on Purpose
Brick Multibank operates on a powerful and simple idea -redistributing surplus goods to those who need them most. Through this collaboration, these items now reach families for whom the smallest thoughtful detail can mean the world.
Reflecting on the partnership, our Founder, Mike Davies MBE, shared:
“We are incredibly grateful to Brick Multibank for their generosity. This collaboration comes at a time when many families face increased pressure over the winter months. Every toy, game, and essential item donated goes a long way in making our respite homes feel like a true opportunity for families to relax and enjoy themselves. It’s not just about the gifts – it’s about showing these families that they are cared for and not forgotten during the festive season.”
What This Means for the Families We Support
For many of the children and families we help, a break with The Principle Trust may be the only holiday they’ve ever had. The addition of thoughtful items transforms a break into cherished memories.
One family recently told us:
“We were pleasantly surprised when we first arrived. The caravan exceeded our expectations in every way. Everything was spotless, fresh, and welcoming. What really stood out were the thoughtful extra touches that made it feel like a real home-from-home for the children. The well-stocked kitchen, cosy throws, and selection of DVDs, books, toys and board games turned simple moments into precious memories. We felt cared for, and the children felt truly at home – which is something money can’t buy.”
Together, Making Memories That Last
Partnerships like this remind us that kindness multiplies when shared. Brick Multibank’s generosity will ripple far beyond Christmas, touching hundreds of families for months to come.
From all of us at The Principle Trust: thank you, Brick Multibank, for helping us continue our mission – giving children in crisis the chance to smile, breathe, and experience a childhood full of memories worth holding onto.
