#Toys4Birmingham donation centre to open at Edgbaston

The Edgbaston #Toys4Birmingham donation centre is open 11am to 3pm on Thursday 3 December, Thursday 10 December and Saturday 12 December.

Here Club players, staff, Cricketeers and supporters of charities Thrive Together Birmingham and the Birmingham PlayCare Network will manage donations of new and nearly new toys, which will be distributed to children for Christmas Day.

Ravi Masih, Head of Community Engagement at Warwickshire County Cricket Club and Lead of the Edgbaston Foundation, said: “We’re very excited to launch the #Toys4Birmingham campaign and open our toy donation centre tomorrow to support and bring spirit to some of the most vulnerable children in Birmingham.

Online purchases can be delivered to Edgbaston Stadium, B5 7QU for the Attention of Ravi Masih. If using Amazon, please use Amazon Smile. Click here and a donation will be made to the Edgbaston Foundation by Amazon at no cost to you.

Anyone who would like to donate money rather than toys for the appeal can do so by clicking here.

All money donated through this campaign will go directly towards buying gifts for vulnerable children and young people whose families might not otherwise be able to afford Christmas presents. These will be distributed through the work of Birmingham Play Care Network, Birmingham Forward Steps and other partners who work directly with vulnerable families.
