Northampton Town Football Club is delighted to announce the launch of its annual Christmas Toy Campaign, running from now until Monday, December 15.
This initiative aims to bring joy to children in need this festive season, with all donations distributed to the Northamptonshire Children’s Trust, Northampton General Hospital, and Cynthia Spencer Hospice and the United Reform Church, Castle Hill in Northampton.
A number of the club's partners, sponsors and supporters are helping with this appeal and we would like to say a big thank you to Snowdon Homes, AM Water Services Ltd, Persimmon Homes, Hawsons and Cawleys.
The club is asking fans, local businesses, and the wider community to donate brand-new toys. Donations can be dropped off at Sixfields Stadium during the campaign dates. These gifts will then be delivered to the charities we are supporting during the w/c December 15th.
