Ivanhoe Christmas Appeal - Toys on the Table

06 November 2023

This year Ivanhoe is very proud to be supporting Leicestershire Charity, Toys on the Table for our Christmas Appeal.

Not only will we be collecting gift donations from staff and students, but we are also co-ordinating a collection for the Ashby area.

Toys on the Table has been running since the 1980s and receives referrals from Social Services of children (regardlessof faith) across Leicester and Leicestershire who without support from the charity would receive no gifts over the season. 

Last Year nearly 5,000 young people were referred, and with most children receiving a small number of gifts, this means the donations of gifts or cash are making a huge difference to young peoples lives. 

You can hear more from Mac the Chairman of the Charity here:

We have two collection days for local businesses of members of the community on Weds 6th and Thurs 7th December. All gift donations can be dropped of at school on these days, to then be collected by the charity volunteers for distribution.

Students and staff can bring their donations from weds 6th-Fri 8th December.

If anyone would like to make a cash donation directly to Toys on the Table you can do so via their Just Giving Page.
