Donegal man leading Christmas toy appeal in Britain
A DONEGAL man is asking companies across Britain to donate towards a Christmas toy appeal to ensure as many children as possible will wake up to a gift this Friday.
Pod-Trak, which has bases in London, Manchester and in Letterkenny, is calling for members of the public to donate toys to either of their British locations – or cash that can be used to buy toys – to help ensure the children of the most vulnerable families will receive a gift this Christmas.
The initiative is the brainchild of Pod-Trak’s Operations Director for the North, Stephen Given, originally from Ardara who is based in the Manchester office.
