Donations can be handed into supermarkets in Airdrie and Coatbridge until December 20
The popular Monklands toy appeal is back for another festive season – and once again we’re asking for the help of generous Airdrie and Coatbridge Advertiser readers to help make it a merry Christmas for youngsters across the area.
Our community appeal is now in its 12th year, and an incredible 14,000 gifts have been donated to date and distributed through volunteer groups to families in need in time for Christmas morning.Get all the news from your area – as well as features, entertainment, sport and the latest on Lanarkshire’s recovery from the coronavirus pandemic – straight to your fingertips, 24/7.
Donation points are also already in place at Morrisons and Asda thanks to the valued and continuing support of both big-hearted store teams – and gifts can be handed in at all three locations from now until Friday, December 20. They will be sorted and distributed to families via local schools and community organisations; with individual shoppers and local businesses all already pledging to get on board with their donations.
