UK charities collect toys and gifts for vulnerable children and the homeless this Christmas.

Charities across the UK, including The Salvation Army and Oxfam, are collecting toy and gift donations to support children in need this Christmas, with initiatives like Staffordshire’s coordinated effort distributing around 18,000 presents to vulnerable families. Local organizations are partnering to wrap and deliver gifts, while shelters like First Base Day Centre remain open on Christmas Day to serve the homeless and isolated. The growing loneliness during the holidays underscores the importance of generosity, with calls to donate to ensure no one spends Christmas alone.
