Bournemouth business community unites to support struggling families

Bournemouth based restaurant chain – Chicken Shack is working in partnership with the Boscombe, Pokesdown and Southbourne Children’s Centres to provide Christmas hampers to fifty under-privileged families.

The hampers contain festive treats such as Christmas crackers, small toys and selection boxes and are due to be collected on Christmas Eve, with a voucher that has been distributed to fifty families in need.
