The Glasgow Times Toy Bank Appeal is back — spreading joy and hope to families across our city this festive season.

In association with Allied Vehicles, Arnold Clark, BAE Systems, Glasgow Taxis, Panthera, Scotwest, SPAR, Stagecoach, StepChange Scotland Debt Charity, Smyths Toys, Storage Vault, TPS Scotland and The Wise Group.

Every year, hundreds of families turn to local toy banks, hoping to give their children a reason to smile at Christmas. But with the cost-of-living crisis still hitting hard, even more people will need our help this year.

Last year, with your support, we raised over £12,000 delivering hundreds of gifts to children who might otherwise have gone without. Now, as the 2025 appeal begins, we’re asking for your support once again — to help us reach even more families and make Christmas magical for more children across Glasgow.

Every penny raised goes towards buying brand new toys, which are distributed to charities and community groups across the city.

Donate today and help us bring the magic of Christmas to families who need it most. Together, we can make a difference.
