Unit December 20, large and selected express Tesco stores across the UK are holding collections for new and unwrapped toys purchased in store, which local charities will distribute to children who may otherwise go without.

Each charity or community group has been chosen by staff who have built connections through their store’s support for the community.

Claire De Silva, Tesco’s head of communities, said: “The annual toy donation campaign is a wonderful way to make a difference at Christmas and that’s all down to the hard work and generosity of our customers and colleagues.

“It's great to see stores building on their local connections to support charities making a difference locally to ensure that every child experiences the magic of Christmas.”

Last Christmas, Tesco customers donated more than 100,000 toys to make sure no child would have to go without a gift.
