Proud sponsors of the Tunbridge Wells Mayor's Toy Appeal
The Mayor’s Toy Appeal is a charitable appeal that provides Christmas presents to children of families in crisis, referred to us by Social Services, schools, churches and other agencies, allowing the children to experience the magic of Christmas whilst enabling their parent(s) a valuable respite from the pressures of the season.
We seek to help children who, due to family circumstances, would not receive Christmas gifts.
For example:
Families where parents/carers suffer with mental and/or physical difficulties
Please drop your gifts off by Wednesday 17th December.
St George’s Childcare and Royal Victoria Place will also feature 'Giving Trees' where you choose a label featuring a gift and return it to any of the collection points.
Last year, we managed to provide over 650 children with a sack of gifts thanks to your enormous generosity. We anticipate that numbers may well be higher this year.
