Altogether Now Christmas Toy Appeal with Hot Radio

This year West Howe Community Enterprises has teamed up with Hot Radio for our 'Altogether Now Toy Appeal'. Our aim is to spread some magic and share the joy this Christmas!

We understand Christmas is often a difficult time of year and can hit families hard. Some families struggle financially or cannot get out as much to enjoy all the activities they see other families attend. We believe that every child deserves to experience the magic of Christmas. By working together, the Altogether Now Toy Appeal will help deliver an amazing Christmas for children in the BCP community.

How can you help?

When you're doing your Christmas shopping we are asking you to buy an extra present and drop it off to one of our location points, or if you don't have time, turn your money into gifts and donate a couple of pounds through the dedicated toy appeals Go Fund Me page.
