A Carlisle store is asking for help to support those in need this Christmas.

Dunelm's Delivering Joy initiative aims to provide gifts for those in need by partnering with local causes including Age UK and The Children’s Hospice.

Customers can choose a gift tag from the store's tree, purchase the gift, and return it to the store for delivery.

Amanda Cox, people and stores director at Dunelm, said: "Each year, we are amazed by the generosity of our customers and colleagues who come together to make a real difference in their local communities.

"This initiative has become a powerful reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a significant difference, especially when so many are feeling the ongoing effects of the cost-of-living crisis."

Last year, winter essentials topped the wish lists, and similar requests are being seen this year.

Any unfulfilled tags by mid-December will be funded by Dunelm to ensure no one goes without this Christmas.
