“The uncertainty of having to wait for a decision on their right to remain in the UK can be frustrating, especially for the children whose natural instincts are to enjoy a good quality of life like other kids do in mainstream society.

“So we decided to team up with Aspire2Inspire on this occasion.

“Similar to what we did last Christmas, we were pleased to be able to donate boxes filled with toys for those children most in need.”
