The festive period is all about giving, and our clients certainly did that at our Christmas lunches last month. They donated over £7,500 to the Toy Appeal, equating to 300 children getting a Christmas in 2020. These donations will also be matched by the Equilibrium Foundation.

Since 2013, the Toy Appeal has been providing toys at Christmas to children living in poverty so that they have presents to open on Christmas day.

In 2019, they gave over 5,000 children a Christmas, and Equilibrium is extremely proud to say that we played a part in that, donating £9,000 to the cause throughout the year.

In the lead up to Christmas, some of our team took one of their three annual volunteer days to go down to the Toy Appeal and be an elf for the day, helping pack toy sacks ready to be delivered and opened on Christmas morning!
