Seven (7) years ago the Dovecot of St. James joined with the Maddens Funeral Supplies Ltd. in launching, what is now known as the Annual Christmas Treat. This charity based event sees citizens of the less fortunate class receiving parcels of food items.

This treat is a well anticipated one and receives scores of participants each year. In 2014 over 500 parcels were extended. No requirements are ever needed and as long as we have to give, no one will be turned away.
