SHOPPERS at Sainsbury's Amblecote can spread some festive cheer by donating toys to Dudley's Sycamore Adventure Playground.

The store's annual gift appeal will benefit visitors to the Dudley Council run centre, which includes youngsters with disabilities and special educational needs, looked after children and pupils from borough schools.

Councillor Anne Millward, Dudley's cabinet member for children’s services, said: “Sycamore Adventure Playground is a much loved centre, providing all children, whatever their background or educational needs, with the opportunity to play, explore and imagine.

“I’d like to thank Sainsbury’s for running this scheme, which is set to benefit the thousands of local children who use the centre every year.”

Kevin Healy, store manager at Sainsbury's Amblecote, added: "The toy appeal is a key part of our December activities - our customers and colleagues are always so generous with this appeal and we hope that we’ll be able to hand over trolleys full of toys to the children at Sycamore Adventure Play.”

Shoppers can donate gifts in store until Wednesday (December 20).
