The holiday season should be a time of joy, warmth, and togetherness. But for many families in our community, it can be filled with stress and hardship. In Govan, 40% of children are living in poverty, with parents often struggling to provide even the basics—let alone a special gift for their children this Christmas. \

That’s why we’re launching a Toy Appeal this year, with a simple but meaningful goal: to ensure that every child in our community wakes up on Christmas morning with a gift to open, experiencing the magic and joy this season is meant to bring.

Why Your Support Matters For many local families, Christmas can be a difficult reminder of what they cannot provide. But with your help, we can transform it into a time of joy and hope. Every toy, every donation, makes a difference and brings a moment of happiness to a child who needs it. Together, we can make sure that no child in Govan goes without a gift this holiday season.

By donating online through our 2024 Just Giving campaign, you’re joining us in this season of giving and helping us reach our goal. It’s quick and easy. Every pound raised goes toward bringing smiles, support, and holiday cheer to children in need right here in Govan.
