🎄✨ CHRISTMAS STARTS NOW! YES, NOW!!!✨🎄
The festive season might feel a way off, but behind the scenes, the Redditch Mission Area Make Christmas Special Toy Appeal 2026 is officially kicking off!
Every year, our incredible community comes together to ensure that no child in Redditch wakes up on Christmas morning without a gift. Last year, your generosity brought so many smiles to local families facing tough times—and this year, we want to make sure we don't miss a single child.
To help us buy specific gifts where gaps need filling, we have launched our official GoFundMe page. Every single penny raised goes directly toward purchasing brand-new toys and gifts for a local child.
👉 Donate to our GoFundMe see link in the comments
🎁 We need physical donations (Ages 0-17)!
We are collecting unwrapped toys, games, and gifts for children and young people aged 0 to 17 years old.
Gifts for all ages: From lovely items for babies right up to great gifts and games suitable for teenagers.
Neurodiverse-friendly toys: Items like sensory toys, tactile games, and comforting resources are incredibly helpful and always in high demand.
🚗 How to donate physical gifts:
If you have toys or gifts ready to donate, you don't have to wait for drop-off points to open! Please email Elaine directly at [email protected] and one of our wonderful team members will arrange to come and collect them from you.
