Cash for Kids’ Mission Christmas is back! Helping to ensure all children can wake up to presents from Santa, many Bauer brands are getting involved to raise money:

Bauer Outside Broadcast

On Wednesday 11th December, four of Bauer’s radio stations will be broadcasting live from the Mission Christmas warehouse in Manchester. The day will begin with Harriet Scott and Harry Judd on Magic Radio Breakfast, before handing over to Greatest Hits Radio’s Ken Bruce. Absolute Radio’s Sarah Champion and Ben Burrell will also be on air in the afternoon, ahead of Gemma Atkinson and Mike Toolan on Hits Radio Drive. The outdoor broadcast aims to share the urgency with listeners, encourage them to donate gifts, and let them know what happens after they’ve made that donation, hearing from volunteers, beneficiaries and charity staff throughout the day. There will also be a live performance from the Rock Choir, who’s Christmas single is raising money for Cash for Kids (read more below).

The race to Christmas number 1

Magic Radio’s Tom & Kat have partnered with Rock Choir and Caroline Redman Lusher to launch a new version of ‘What Christmas Means to Me’. The single will be released on 6th December, make sure to listen and stream when it comes out!

Walking with Wyatt

Planet Rock’s Wyatt is taking on his next massive charity challenge from 25th November: Wyatt’s Walk To Planet Rockstock. On Monday 25th November, he’ll set off from the Planet Rock Studios in Central London, headed for the home of Planet Rockstock in Trecco Bay, South Wales. His aim – to arrive before the start of the festival on Friday afternoon. Will he make it on time!? Find out more and sponsor his walk here.

Uh Oh, Milo! 

‘Uh Oh, Milo! The Excited Elf’, part of an established series from author Kate Wogan, is available to buy online from the Uh Oh Milo! website with all profits going to Mission Christmas. What’s more, some special content with Hits Radio’s Sam Thompson to promote the book is coming soon, so watch this space!

Dress like Ant & Dec or Stand Out with some socks

Created as a collaboration between Cash for Kids, Ant & Dec and Newcastle-based artist Mul, a special exclusive t-shirt has been created to raise money this year. The design celebrates the Northeast heritage of the Geordie Duo and the artist’s vibrant cartoon meets Street Art style.

All proceeds from the sale of the t-shirt will go to the Cash for Kids Mission Christmas appeal. Buy your tee here.

Plus, Cash for Kids has also teamed up with Stand Out Socks – fresh from their successful appearance on Dragon’s Den – for a special edition Mission Christmas sock. They’re available now at £9.95 a pair online with a minimum of £1 coming to Mission Christmas.
