DO you have any unwanted toys or gifts that could go to a struggling family this Christmas?

Then please get in touch with yipworld.

The socially-conscious youth organisation has launched a special appeal for items to help make someone’s Christmas.

They are looking for small or large toys, male and female toiletries, clothing, bikes, electrical goods, mobile phones, and confectionery - anything that would make a great gift for someone who needs it.

The gifts are aimed at babies, children, young people and teenagers of families who are finding life hard.

yipworld will clean them up, package them and deliver them.

All they ask is that whatever is donated is in working order and that all the components are present.

They also want to identify families in our communities who would benefit from donations. All donations have been sorted to identify those that would be a wonderful gift for children - other donations have been sent to the charity shop so it's an all round winner.

All referrals will be treated in the strictest confidence Contact them by phone on 01290 422364, by email on info@yipworld.org or through their Facebook page.
