Andrew Gwynne, MP for Denton and Reddish, has shown his support for this year’s Tameside Toy Appeal, and encouraged local residents to get involved.
Tameside Toy Appeal is an annual initiative which aims to provide gifts for Tameside children living in poverty. Reliant on donations, the appeal gives toys to young people from 0-18 years of age.
Those wishing to donate toys can do so by visiting one of Tameside Toy Appeal’s local drop-off points across Tameside, or by handing a gift to one of the appeal’s ‘Doorstep Donation Elves’.
For gift ideas and tips on how to donate, visit www.actiontogether.org.uk/tameside-toy-appeal. You can also donate to Tameside Toy Appeal via donating on their Just Giving back here.
Commenting, Andrew Gwynne said:
“I’m delighted to be supporting this year’s Tameside Toy Appeal.
The reality is, Christmas will be exceptionally difficult for families across the UK and here in Tameside. For children living in poverty, receiving a gift will mean so much, and give them a little bit of Christmas joy in tough times.
So if you are able to, I’d really encourage you to donate to this year’s Tameside Toy Appeal. I’d also like to take a moment to thank the extraordinary volunteers and staff who make this annual initiative such a success.”
