CHRISTMAS APPEAL 2025 - SMYTHS TOYS GIFT CARDS
With Christmas fast approaching, we have launched our 5th annual appeal for donations of gift cards for Smyths Toys so we can help local families who are vulnerable and in need of support to buy gifts for their children this Christmas.
We have decided to ask for gift cards rather than presents again this year so that the parents can enjoy shopping for their children and wrapping the gifts. If you would prefer to give a present then please contact us as this can also be arranged.
If you are donating a gift card, could you please purchase these in denominations of £5, this will ensure we can give the same amount to each child that we support.
If you would prefer to donate cash we will have donation tins at Canolfan y Bont where you can give as much or as little as you wish, alternatively you can make a direct transfer to our bank account and we will purchase vouchers on your behalf (contact us for bank details).
For further details please contact Cath or Alison on 01792 885532 or call in to Canolfan y Bont to see us.
Thank you ️
