Thank you for helping make a difference this Christmas!
While most of us look forward to Christmas there are some children for whom it is just another day. Every year there are families who through no fault of their own dread the thought of the festive season, people who can’t afford to treat their loved ones and won’t be sharing in the Christmas cheer.
Minster FM's annual toy appeal is back, thanks this year to our partner Calverts Carpets & Flooring in Stonebow York, Nether Poppleton, Thirsk, Malton, Easingwold and Northallerton.
A big thank you to Stoneacre Motor Group for supplying us with a van to help us deliver all the toys donated in time for Christmas!
Thank you for your donations!
We've now finished our collections and have delivered toys to the various organisations and agencies in North Yorkshire who will make sure they go to children who otherwise might have an unhappy Christmas.
Thank you to everyone who generously donated toys to our appeal. We can guarantee every one will go to a good, deserving home.
