Angel Crackers are curated with locally-sourced novelties by homewares and gift store After Noah (Upper Street), a conversation starter, fantastic fact about Angel, Christmas paper hat (of course), and a Christmas Blend tea bag. And there’s more! One in 30 crackers include a special GOLDEN TICKET – a great prize donated from one of the campaign’s brilliant supporters, including experiences, meals and tickets to Angel’s best places.
