Winter Toy Appeal 2023

This is the big one - our 10th Winter Toy Appeal.

Each year the Winter Toy Appeal provides new gifts at Christmas for around 5,000 children in London who are experiencing extreme poverty. Money raised via this page will be spent on new toys from independent toy shops in London. Toys are distributed via schools, children's centres, refuges, migrant centres, social workers, councils and more to children in most need.

The appeal is run by Jenna and Basil Fansa of the Local Buyers Club in partnership with Location Location estate agency. Toys are distributed predominantly to children in Hackney, Haringey, Islington and Tower Hamlets.
