But for others the festive period can be a difficult time. Here are just a few ways you can make a difference:
5. Random Acts of kindness
Helping someone without asking for anything in return can be a rewarding experience for everyone. Why not send a gift to someone in need - anonymously or otherwise, it shows that someone cares this Christmas.
6. Help vulnerable families
For many Christmas is a time for spreading good will and cheer, however, many others will haveto flee their homes due to domestic abuse.You can help by donatingto the South Ribble and Chorley womens refuge http://bit.ly/35szshh
