The Convent have announced that the Convent Christmas Fair 2025 raised over £24,000.

A statement from the Convent follows below:

The Convent is delighted to announce that the Convent Christmas Fair 2025 raised over £24,000, passing the previous joint-record of £22,000 in 2012 and 2014.  

His Excellency welcomed representatives of Cancer Relief Gibraltar, GibSams and Support  Needs Action Group (SNAG) to the Convent on 10 December to present them with a cheque  for £6,000 each. Further donations will be made through next year. Also attending were  many of the corporate donors and the Convent Christmas Fair Committee. 

Cancer Relief provides a much-needed service to many in Gibraltar, always free of charge.  The donation will allow it to extend its outreach to families in need across Gibraltar.  GibSams, meanwhile will be able to continue their vital support services, and SNAG have  already ordered two interactive projectors for their valuable work for children and adults.
