If you would like to contribute here is what you’ll need to do:

1. Find an empty shoebox. Most shoe shops are only too pleased to give you one.

2. Decide whether the box will be for a man, a woman or a couple.

3. Fill your shoebox with a variety of gifts, see suggestions below.

4. Wrap the shoebox and label for man, woman or couple.

5. Deliver filled shoeboxes to Castelo de Sonhos in Silves, or the Holiday Inn, located in Armação de Pêra between the 15th November and 9th December 2022.

Suggestions for shoeboxes include: shampoo, soap, body lotion, bath gel, foam hairbrush, comb, mirror, toothbrush, woolly hat, gloves, scarf, hankies, socks, tights, small shawl, sewing kit, shower cap, small torch with battery, tea towel, oven gloves, small notebook & pen, sweets, chocolate, cakes, biscuits (please ensure they are well in date), small Christmas ornament & Christmas card.
