Tesco customers in Chepstow can gift a toy to local children in need this Christmas.

Uo to Sunday 15 December, Tesco Chepstow Superstore is organising a collection of toys in store and sharing these with Monmouthshire County Council’s Christmas Wishes Appeal.

The donated toys will be distributed as part of the annual Christmas Wishes Appeal, which helps give the county’s most vulnerable children and young people a Christmas gift they might not otherwise receive.

Rob Bayley, Store Manager at Tesco Chepstow Superstore, said: “We are so pleased to be able to support the Christmas Wishes Appeal this year, to help ensure that everyone in our community experiences the joy of Christmas. Thank you to our customers for their generosity, their donations will mean the world to the children who receive them this Christmas.”

Tesco is also making a financial donation of £25,000 to the Salvation Army this year to support their ongoing efforts in providing essential services and support to vulnerable families during the festive season.

Claire De Silva, Head of Communities at Tesco, said: “Our stores are committed to supporting local children and their communities year-round, and our annual toy collection campaign is a wonderful way for our customers and colleagues to come together to make a real difference at Christmas.

“It's great to see Tesco Chepstow Superstore partnering with Monmouthshire County Council’s Christmas Wishes Appeal this year to ensure that every child experiences the magic of Christmas.”

Over 800 Tesco large stores have a dedicated donation point in store where customers can donate new, unwrapped toys.
