Staff at Newham Partnership Working have rallied together in support of the borough’s underprivileged youngsters.

Representatives from Community Links visited their Barking Road headquarters to receive their donation to this year’s Toy Appeal.

Supporting children is important for the organisation, which runs four key services in schools.

CEO Anna Crispin said: “Here at NPW we are passionately working with schools to support the development of children and young people within Newham and to enhance their opportunities for the future.

“We have supported the Community Links charity as they provide a fantastic service in supporting the children and young people within east London, the Christmas Toy Appeal is a good example of that.”
