And this year, we are truly grateful to our good friends at Caber Coffee for joining our appeal.
The support that VSA’s services have received over the years at Christmas has been incredible,with countless donations so kindly made from individuals as well as businesses throughout Aberdeen and beyond. Together, small acts of kindness this festive season, along with YOUR support, will make a genuine difference throughout our communities.
Our appeal is now LIVE and listed below are the various drop off points throughout Aberdeen and the North-East, where with your generosity, we hope to provide a Christmas gift to vulnerable people within our communities.

We kindly request for gift donations to be UNWRAPPED as this will allow our team to distribute accordingly
Small acts of kindness can make a huge impact within our local community. We are appealing for donations of gift items that will bring an extra smile to vulnerable people this Christmas...
If you can't donate a gift to our appeal, you can still make a real difference by donating online in aid of VSA's services. ANY donation will make a huge difference to helping us to continue the support we provide to vulnerable people throughout our communities.
Aberdeen-based Caber Coffee is brewing up Christmas cheer for vulnerable adults across the North East, thanks to its support of a festive fundraising project.
Building on the success of previous Christmas fundraising campaigns, Caber Coffee will donate 25p from every retail pack sold of its special Stocking Filler blend to VSA via the Original 106 appeal. Hand-packed in 100% compostable packaging, Stocking Filler is described as a rich, chocolatey “magical blend full of festive flavour that fuels Santa’s travels.”
In addition to its product donations, Caber Coffee has also gone a step further by funding and helping to distribute donation boxes to boost contributions the appeal. The company has also enlisted the support of its customer network, encouraging them to display donation boxes in their venues to help maximise visibility and engagement.
Commenting on the project, Caber Coffee Managing Director Findlay Leask said: “We firmly believe that our business should play an active role in supporting our local community, and the ‘Christmas Delivered’ campaign is an excellent way to bring the spirit of the season to some of those who need it most. We are delighted that Stocking Filler will help to deliver some Christmas goodwill, one cup at a time.”
Our unwavering commitment to meeting the changing needs of the community drives us to provide a broad range of health and social care services that promote the physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being of every individual we care for.
At VSA, we always aim to go above and beyond in our care to make a positive impact on the lives of those we serve and the communities we are a part of.
