Doncaster Rovers Pass the Parcel Community Drop off Point at Plover

https://www.doncasterroversfc.co.uk/news/2025/november/10/pass-the-parcel—help-us-deliver-our-biggest-christmas-present-drive-yet

Christmas is all about community spirit and we need your help once again to make our 2025 present drive the biggest yet.

Last year, due to the incredible generosity of supporters and 100Club partners, we were able to make our biggest ever delivery.

We packed a bus full with presents and hit the city’s roads with Santa behind the wheel. As well as our annual visit to the children’s ward at Doncaster Royal Infirmary, we also dropped in at Foster For Doncaster, Eve Merton Dreams Trust and several other worthy destinations to help spread some festive joy.

This year we are determined to make an even bigger impact and, thanks to our partners Pass Logistics, Santa will not be driving a sleigh or a bus – but an entire lorry.

Every child in Doncaster deserves a present this Christmas and, together with Club Doncaster Foundation and our 100Club partners, we are looking to make that happen.

If you can, please purchase a present for a child from newborn to age 16.

You do not need to wrap the present and you can drop it off at one of dozens of locations around the city which are listed below.

Gifts should be dropped off by Thursday, December 11 to allow us time to wrap and deliver before the big day.

But it is not just children we are seeking to help this Christmas.

We are also collecting non-perishable food items and hygiene essentials to help support local foodbanks at the time of the year when demand is at its most fierce. These too can be taken to one of our drop-off points, which are listed below.

Help us to provide some comfort in our community this Christmas, and spread a little festive joy while we are at it.

Drop-off points

  • Plover School – Coniston Road, Intake, DN2 6JL

We have arrived at the port!

We have a two hour wait before we can board the ferry. Signal is limited at the moment. The children are just enjoying their dinner and stretching their legs.

Will update when we are on the ferry.

We are on our way back to the accommodation ready for a long day of travelling tomorrow.

How lucky are we to have been a part of creating special memories for our Year 5 & 6 children.

Such a magical day ❤️

What a blast we have had at the silent disco. I am so so excited to make the videos of our time away. The children absolutely loved it and it was amazing to see them having so much fun!
