The good news of great cheer is that you can still do it online.

You can choose from a list of carefully selected presents, dragging and dropping them into your box, then adding a personal letter and photo.

Samaritans Purse – the charity behind Operation Christmas Child – will ensure your gift is sent. Each box will cost £15 plus a £3 shipping fee.
