Little Troopers announces Christmas Smiles plans for December
The charity Little Troopers has the announced details of its 2024 Christmas Smiles campaign to support military children who have a parent deployed over the festive period.
With support from BAE Systems and Vivo Defence Services, Little Troopers will once again be sending out 2,500 special Christmas boxes to military children who are separated from their serving parent this December. Each Christmas box will be packed with Little Troopers resources to help children through deployment, a Little Troopers book and other treats to bring Christmas Smiles to thousands of forces children.
As well as the Christmas boxes, Little Troopers has organised a busy calendar of free festive events and activities, including a magical storytelling event with the Chelsea Pensioners at the Royal Hospital in London, a free screening of Paddington in Peru at five ODEON cinemas and an online pantomime and elf workshop that families can join wherever they are posted in the world. The charity is also working with local theatres to giveaway pantomime tickets throughout December.
