Help Us Fill The Boat With Christmas Magic!

Help Us Reach Our Target Of 300 Presents For Local Children

Let’s fill a boat with Christmas magic.

This Christmas, Coastal Cruises Poole is inviting the community to come together to fill one of its boats with gifts for local children and young people who could do with a little extra magic.

The idea is simple: when you’re buying a Christmas present, buy one extra and donate it to Santa’s Harbour of Hope. Every gift will help fill the boat, and our charity partners—Amelia’s Rainbow, Ashley’s Birthday Bank and MYTIME Young Carers—will distribute the donations to local children and young people.

One harbour. One community. A boat full of hope.

What we’re asking people to donate

We’re welcoming gifts for children and young people, including:

Lego, games, cars and dolls
Arts and crafts, including sets suitable for older children
Sensory toys and gifts
Teenage gifts, including make-up and nice toiletries
Cuddly socks, cosy blankets and blanket hoodies
Chocolates and sweets
Gift vouchers, especially helpful for older children and teenagers
