Toy Appeal - Newham Recorder

East London charity celebrating bumper crop of toys

East London charity ELBA is celebrating its most successful Toy Appeal yet, with over £70,000 worth of toys donated to the cause in just four weeks.

We made it - the Recorder and Community Links’ Christmas Toy Appeal has raised over 15,000 gifts for underprivileged children in its 36th year.

This piece of TV soap history has found a new home after a charitable volunteer won our Toy Appeal auction.
