Christmas Toy Appeal

All our offices are partnering with local charities this year to support their 2025 Christmas Toy Appeals, aiming to help disadvantaged children and teens.

Reading Toy Appeal

The Reading Family Aid Toys Appeal has been running in various forms for over 60 years. It is for those local to the Reading area who are able to donate toys and gifts to disadvantaged children who are unlikely to receive any Christmas presents.

For the past nine years, we've been actively involved in this heart-warming initiative, collecting thousands of toys to bring joy to children in need during the Christmas period. It's incredibly rewarding to know that our efforts are making a tangible difference in the lives of local families.

You can donate toys and gifts at our collection point before the 8th December:

Quad at ONE Station Hill Reading, Garrard St, Reading RG1 1NR

Or, alternatively you can donate to our JustGiving page where the money raised will go towards buying toys and gifts for disadvantaged children and teens:
