A mission to ensure all kids get a Christmas gift
A Leicester charity is continuing its mission to make sure every child in Leicestershie has a present to open at Christmas.
The 'Toys on the Table' charity appeal has been going since the early 1980's and they've seen their referrals grow year-on-year.
The charity provides new toys and gifts at the festive season for those children, regardless of faith, who might otherwise not receive anything. Once again this year there are drop off points all over Leicester and Leicestershire for donations.
Bill Bowley has been vice chairman of the charity for 20 years. Bill tells Summaya Mughal about this year's appeal, and why there's still such a need for the charity.
