The Florrie Christmas Toy & Food Appeal

This winter, The Florrie is asking our community to come together and help us bring Christmas to local families who need a little extra support. Our annual Toy and Food Appeal makes a huge difference to people across Liverpool, ensuring children wake up to gifts on Christmas morning and families have festive food to enjoy during the holidays.

We are collecting new, unwrapped toys and a wide range of food and household essentials. Every donation, big or small, helps us spread warmth, kindness, and hope this winter.

What you can donate

New children’s toys
From toddlers to teens. All toys must be new and unwrapped.

Gift sets for teenagers
Self care sets, grooming kits, or small treat bundles.

Chocolate and selection boxes
Festive favourites that bring a smile.

Festive treats and biscuits
Anything that brings a bit of Christmas joy to the table.

Winter warmers
