Introducing the world changing range for Christmas 2022

Join the giving revolution this Christmas! We’re so excited to bring you our beautiful range of change-making charity products again this year, to help make your Christmas the most meaningful one yet.

We are proud to be supporting 48 inspiring charities with our Advent Calendars, Candles, Christmas Crackers and Bauble once again. With a range of wonderful causes, from providing food and medicine for those in need, to protecting our oceans.

Here at Advent of Change, we believe it’s never too early for the C-word – and as we say goodbye to summer and look forward to the festive season, we’re so excited for you to explore our range which we believe offers something far more meaningful than just sparkle this Christmas. 

With new research from the Charities Aid Foundation estimating that 4.9m fewer people donated to charity in , we would love to spread the spirit of giving more than ever this Christmas – encouraging those who can, to swap chocolate for charity this year.

Committed to changing lives, Advent of Change founder, Kristina Salceanu, hopes to raise over £100,000 in 2022. Kristina said: “We’re thrilled to be bringing back our classic advent calendars, and our charity family of products for 2022.

“It’s been an incredibly tough couple of years for many of our charity partners, and we know so many people will be feeling the impact of the next few months with today’s challenging economic climate.

“Now more than ever, amazing charities are doing life-changing work to aid those in need, and we know it can be hard to decide on just one to support – which is where our Advent of Change concept all started!

“No matter which you choose, each of our wonderful products provides the perfect way to give back to so many charities in one go, and gift someone, or yourself, the chance to really make a difference this festive season.”
