Operation Christmas Child
Liverpool drop-off point
With your help, we can make many children smile this Christmas
Our Liverpool distribution centre is an Operation Christmas Child collection point for Christmas 2021.
Deliver your box between the 15th to the 22nd of November to L9 7AR. Here's how to proceed
STEP 1
Take a shoebox from our Aintree location or simply use a spare shoebox you have at home.
STEP 2
Attach a tag so you know who to buy for (eg. boy aged 7). You can get one from our Liverpool distribution centre or download one here.
STEP 3
You may want to personalise your box – maybe add a handwritten note or some photographs. Do not seal your shoe box as it will need to be checked by the team at Operation Christmas Child.
STEP 4
Deliver the shoe box to our Liverpool distribution centre (see location) or, if you live in Liverpool, give as a call and we will collect it for free using DPD Local.
DCTUK will add a donation on your behalf to cover the shipping fee to it's final destination.
