Blantyre Toy Drive Success

Annual Campaign comes to an end

Our annual ‘Blantyre Toy Drive 2019’ campaign has now ended and WOW, what an amazing success it’s been this year!! For the 4th year in a row, we asked people to donate a toy which will be given out by Santa at tomorrow’s festive event and how you all responded!

Partnering with the kind assistance of Glen Travel and Blantyre Soccer Academy and with donations from many other individuals and businesses, during the last 4 weeks, over 210 incredible brand new toys have been collected, for kids of all ages, from babies right up to age 10.

This little video shows just SOME of the toys, with other bags not able to even fit on our table!

Tomorrow, on Sunday 24 November at 1pm, Santa will be arriving at the Sports Centre and will be there until 4pm (queue closes at 3.30pm). There’s FREE facepainting and Arts and Crafts in the queue to keep kids occupied. Kids will not only meet Santa in the most beautiful grotto, but will be able to choose one of these quality gifts.

Look out also for loads of Freebies. There’s bags of sweets, glow sticks and more! An unmissable family day out for this town that brings the whole community together in festive spirit.

Thank you sincerely to everybody who donated this year. It’s our favourite campaign of the year and you all did AMAZING!
