Christmas Toy Appeal
For families in need
Every Christmas we work hard to ensure that everyone in our community have what they need, and a little extra this Christmas. Our local community statistically falls within the 1% most deprived in the UK and we work alongside hundreds of families who are struggling against poverty. We do this through our food pantry, providing school uniform, energy top-ups and essentials, information, advice, training, courses and in partnership with many agencies and organisations.
​
Each Christmas we provide hundreds of local children with toy hampers to help our families who were struggling against poverty, and this year will be no different. Qualified parents/caregivers can access our toy grotto where shelves filled with a huge range of toys enable them to choose the items they know their children want.
We can only do this though with your support.
​
How can you help?
- Donate new toys. We have a collection point in the Hideaway entrance.
​
- Get your people involved. How about setting up a collection point at your workplace or church and gathering support that way? We can provide posters to help let people know!
​
- Make a financial donation. You can buy a toy using the donate buttons below and we'll buy the toys wholesale - meaning we can buy at least 2 for the RRP of 1, and we can buy the items we're short of.
​
- Buy a toy hamper on behalf of a loved one. What better gift can you give this year? We'll send you a gift card to give them at Christmas letting them know what was purchased on their behalf.
