A Romford business is appealing for toys for its Christmas appeal ahead of the festive season.

Access Self Storage has set up the appeal in aid of The Children’s Society, a charity that orks with and supports some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people in the country.

Gifts that are donated will raise funds for the young people, and provide support for families of young children who live in poverty.

David Fletcher, the Romford store manager for Access Self Storage, said: “We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of the public and local businesses. Last year was such a success as we had over 100 gifts donated and we are on our way to smashing that record this year!”

A drop off point will be open at Access Romford until December 14, when Santa will be collecting all the donations and delivering them to the local Children’s Society store Access Romford; 12 Southend Arterial Road, Romford, Essex, RM3 0BX
