Lincolnshire Showground Toy Appeal 15 Nov
The Christmas Sack Appeal helps people who may be struggling financially to provide for themselves and/or their families this Christmas. We would like to help in a small way by collecting toys from visitors to the Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair and donate these to the appeal.
A Santa’s Sack will be on the Rotary of Lincoln’s stand where you can meet Father Christmas and donate your toy or gift, in exchange, children will receive one free ticket to our Countryside Lincs event on Sunday 5 April 2020.
After the Food and Gift Fair, the toys will be dropped off at the Bridge Church Lincoln, they then arrange for families to come and choose items for themselves and their children on a week in December, we ask that the gifts are not wrapped as families select gifts that are appropriate.
Suggested toy ideas
0-3 years: dolls, cot mobiles, bath toys, CD's of suitable music and nursery rhymes, puzzles.
