More than 50 National Lottery winners have knitted Christmas angels and bought bags of presents for children at a hospice for babies and toddlers.
The jackpot winners teamed up to support Zoe’s Place Baby Hospice in Middlesbrough, and after the woolly toys are quarantined, they will be given to children, their families and even carers.
These will be handed out in a Christmas grotto gingerbread playhouse which was built for the hospice by a dedicated band of National Lottery winners three years ago.
