How to apply for a Christmas Smiles box from Little Troopers
Little Troopers has worked tirelessly to secure funding for 2500 Christmas boxes for military families experiencing deployment over Christmas 2023.
Boxes include various Little Troopers resources to utilise plus lots of lovely festive treats to bring Christmas Smiles.
Across 6th December we held a packing day to pack up all 2500 boxes and many units across all three services came to collect them, lots of you will receive a box via your unit.
We have 125 boxes that individual families can apply to receive, if they're are not part of a unit who centrally bid for boxes.
Our Christmas Smiles goodies are always very popular so they are allocated via a random prize draw. To be in the draw, please fill out all the questions below before 5pm on Thursday 14th December.
Please to complete all the questions in the survey and click 'submit'. We will only accept one entry per person / family. Successful families will be notified by email on Sunday 17th December (check your junk mail).
