EVERY Christmas our Toys and Tins appeal aims to brighten up the season for some of York’s most vulnerable people.
This year promises to be better than ever thanks to a massive boost from the Yorkshire Air Museum and Benenden, who have donated hundreds of toys, books and games.
The museum’s gesture is based on a similar gift from 70 years ago, when French airmen based at Elvington arrived at the Mansion House with their arms full of presents.
Christmas has always been a time for giving and we thank everyone who has donated. But if you are still waiting to drop off your gift, be quick. Our appeal ends at 5pm this afternoon.
