As we approach one of the most magical times of the year, we ask you what you think Christmas is all about…

For us at MPA, Christmas is about spending time with family and friends and treating those close to us. However, not everyone is as lucky as us to have the opportunity to give and receive presents. That is why this year we have decided that rather than doing our annual office Secret Santa, we would instead donate toys and gifts to ‘Escape Arts Christmas Toy Drive’.

First established in 1997, ‘Escape Arts’ offers professional workshops in a relaxed and friendly environment. Their work is aimed at addressing isolation, through inspiring strong, vibrant and happy communities, improving the quality of life for all. One way in which they achieve this at this time of year is to distribute donated toys and gifts to those in need.

The charity’s core belief centres around the strengthening of our communities through enriching people’s lives…something which MPA wholeheartedly agrees with! We are therefore delighted to assist this fantastic charity and hope that our donations ensure that even more families get a Christmas to remember this year…
