Help us put a smile on a local child’s face this Christmas!

In Govan, 40% of children live in poverty, with many parents struggling to afford the basics, let alone a special gift for Christmas.

That’s why we’re supporting the Season of Giving: Sunny Govan’s Festive Toy Appeal.

Every toy or donation makes a difference, helping to bring a smile to a child’s face. Together, we can make sure that no child in Govan goes without a gift this holiday season.

Donations are accepted until Monday 16th December 2024.

Gift ideas

All gifts must be new.

If you’d like to donate, here are some age-specific gift suggestions:

Ages 0-3: Soft toys, bath toys, nursery storybooks

Ages 3-5: Books, toy cars, dolls, colouring books

Ages 5-9: Dolls, action figures, colouring sets

Ages 9-12: Games, sports equipment, scarves

Ages 12-16: Books, toiletries, hats, gloves

You can donate the presents wrapped but please label them with the intended age group and whether they are for a boy, girl or suitable for any chid. This helps us ensure every gift reaches the right child.
