This year our Christmas gifts are going to Homestart Leeds and Living Local. Both charities support local families that are going through difficult times. Many children in these families will not be receiving presents this Christmas, and will be very grateful for our gifts.
Here are some suggestions:
- 0 to 3 year olds: rattles, stacking toys, building blocks, pull-along toys, musical toys (please, nothing with small parts or soft toys unless for a child under 12 months old).
- 3 to 12 years: Selection boxes, age appropriate toys (please, no craft items or jigsaws).
- Teenagers: Smellies (both both male and female), bags, beanie hats, gloves and scarves, T-shirts, vouchers for WH Smith/HMV etc.
Please could you bring new toys (not second hand) and would you please leave them unwrapped – this way we can ensure that each child is given an appropriate gift.
Thank you for your generosity.
