Reading Family Aid

Toys and Teens Appeal 2025 🎁 We are proud to support Reading Family Aid in their annual Toys and Teens Appeal 2025. This wonderful initiative helps bring joy to disadvantaged children and teenagers in the Reading area who might otherwise go without a Christmas gift 🎄 We are asking for donations of toys and gifts suitable for children and teens. Ideally these should be brand new but we can also accept excellent quality preloved items that are clean, complete and in good working order 🎁 Our Aldworth Partnership Prefects launched the appeal to the school this week and donations can be brought to school reception until Friday 28 November 📅 Thank you for helping us make a difference this Christmas ❤ #ToysAndTeensAppeal #ReadingFamilyAid #CommunitySupport #MakeADifference #ChristmasGiving

🎁 We are proud to support Reading Family Aid’s Toys & Teens Christmas Gift Appeal 2025 🎄 Once again, we are supporting this wonderful local initiative, which helps bring joy to disadvantaged children across Reading by providing new and ‘as new’ gifts for ages 0–16, children who might otherwise not receive a present this Christmas. We will be collecting donations in the office and encourage others in the community to join us in supporting this cause. 👉 You can donate gifts at local drop-off points or contribute directly via GoFundMe: https://lnkd.in/eBsSG-b7 The final date for donations is Saturday the 6th of December, so there is still time to help make a real difference this festive season.

If you're in the Reading area over the next month or so, and you want to make a Christmas morning unforgettable for a kid that otherwise may end up empty handed - why not drop in a little something for them to wake up to on the big day? Things are tough for a lot of people these days, so it doesn't need to be expensive. What ever you can manage would be hugely appreciated by us here at Roc, Reading Family Aid and of course, the families you're donating to :)
