More Radio's Toy Appeal 2024

The More Radio Toy Appeal 2024 has now finished!

Thanks to your generosity we have helped 40 children's charities in Sussex, who requested over 5,600 toys.

We are still counting and distributing the toys, but we wanted to thank you for helping us to make a difference to thousands of children across Sussex...

 

Last year, with your help and generosity, we delivered Christmas presents to more than 8,000 children across Sussex who may otherwise have gone without. And this year, we want to do it all over again.

The More Radio Toy Appeal is back, and once again we will make sure that less fortunate children across our county get a Christmas to remember. This year we're going to need your help more than ever.

Shockingly, around one in three children in Sussex will be living in poverty this Christmas, a situation made so much worse by the continuing cost of living crisis. More and more families are struggling to make ends meet, and one in five people who are forced to rely on food banks are in work. For some children, the only present they will receive is from our appeal.

We’re looking for donations of toys and games for children and teenagers across the county, so we really can make it a happy Christmas for everyone living in Sussex this year. We work with a huge number of charities and organisations across East & West Sussex such as food banks, domestic abuse refuges and children's hospices to ensure donations reach the neediest children.

We provide toys and gifts for children of all ages and abilities from newborns to teenagers, so generally, anything goes!

We only have two rules…

  • ALL TOYS/GIFTS MUST BE BRAND NEW

  • ALL TOYS/GIFTS MUST BE UNWRAPPED
