Store First Self Storage, which operates 17 facilities in the United Kingdom, is supporting Mission Christmas 2025, an annual gift drive sponsored by charity organization Cash for Kids. The company will collect new, unwrapped gifts for children at its facilities in Barnsley, Burnley, Ellesmere Port and Manchester, according to sources. 

“Being part of Mission Christmas is a highlight of our year. It’s a reminder of how small acts of kindness can make a huge impact,” said Kat O'Donnell-Hall, property manager for Store First’s Ellesmere Port location. 

“A massive thank you to Store First, all of your customers and colleagues for taking part and being a drop-off point for Mission Christmas this year. It’s absolutely incredible and will help so many children,” said Laura Charlton, charity manager for Cash for Kids.

Last year, the nonprofit delivered presents to more than 36,000 children. It’s the official charity for Bauer Media Group, a multi-media conglomerate headquartered in Hamburg, Germany. Cash for Kids works with other charities, businesses and community groups to provide year-round grant funding.
