Donation from 2025 Belfast Black Santa Appeal Warmly Received

3rd February 2026

On Sunday 1 February, Mags, Debs and Barbara attended Belfast Cathedral’s annual Good Samaritans’ Service on behalf of DU Dance (NI) to receive a very welcome donation from The 2025 Black Santa Sit-out Appeal.  This generous donation will immensely benefit Alternative Energies, our intergenerational dance programme in Ballycastle.

This year’s Sit-out raised over £140,000, all of which has been shared out among over 100 local charities.

The 50th Anniversary Appeal (Black Santa 2026) is expected to begin in December 2026.
