Every Christmas, A P Robinson & Co roll out the Under The Tree Appeal to raise money and donate gifts to a particular charity.

For Christmas 2007, A P Robinson & Co chose When You Wish Upon A Star for their Christmas Charity Appeal.

When You Wish Upon A Star grants the 'wishes' of children suffering from terminal and incurable illnesses, from the age of 2 to 16 years.

Wishes are as individual as the children themselves. For a very sick child, this could mean meeting their favourite pop group, going on holiday, driving in a Ferrari or having a great day out with their family.

These courageous children undergo some harsh and painful treatments and their families who so bravely fight alongside them need the support that this charity offers.

Donations, gifts and help from volunteers were urgently needed, so A P Robinson & Co asked their clients, contacts and friends of the firm to donate gifts for the children of the charity which were placed under the huge 14 foot Christmas tree in our main reception.

The firm managed to donate over 60 presents and �700 which was used towards the Lapland trip which took poorly children to see Santa just before Christmas.
