Christmas should be a joyous occasion, but unexpected circumstances can make it a stressful and anxious time. Whether you need supplies for the Christmas period, someone to share Christmas with or prayer support, the Salvos are here for you. The following links have information about The Salvation Army’s Christmas help.

If you’re seeking support for another concern, please visit this Need Help page.

The Salvation Army is committed to limiting the spread of COVID-19 while supporting people who need help at Christmas. If your local government area or state is in lockdown, we will still provide support – it just may look a little different.

We have sanitising and social distancing guidelines in place to protect you when accessing our services, and will follow government health advice.

Please do not enter a Salvation Army building with any flu-like symptoms, if you have been a close contact with anyone who has a confirmed case of COVID-19, or if you have been told to self-isolate.

We are happy to give you Christmas help over the phone. We offer non-face-to-face options for people who are under stay-at-home orders, choosing to isolate or who are unwell at the time of their appointment or Christmas hamper collection. Please contact your local Salvos for more information about our Christmas assistance programs.
