This December, we’re inviting all our customers and members of the public to join us in supporting our Christmas Toy Drive in aid of Good Shepherd Cork.
This wonderful charity supports women, children and families across Cork who are vulnerable to homelessness. We’ve been proud to work with the Good Shepherd team for several years, contributing rugs, helping with collections and sorting through Christmas donations. It’s a partnership we value deeply and a meaningful part of our year. If you’re able to contribute, we would love you to be part of it.
How you can take part
You can drop off donations of toys and gifts for children, teenagers and adults at our Wilton warehouse until December 20th. The full address is Unit 17, Doughcloyne Court Industrial Estate, Sarsfield Road, Wilton, Cork, T12 D564.
If it’s more convenient, items can also be dropped off at our Douglas showroom at Unit 106, St Patrick's Woollen Mills, Douglas, Cork, T12 XN73.
All donations will be passed on to Good Shepherd Cork in time for Christmas.
What to donate
Suggested donations include:
-
Toys
-
Books
-
Puzzles
-
Crafts
-
Board games
Gift vouchers are especially appreciated, as they allow parents the autonomy to choose items that their families genuinely need or will enjoy.
Why we support Good Shepherd Cork
As a family business that has been part of the Douglas community for 30 years, it is important to us that we give back in a meaningful way. Christmas can be an incredibly difficult time for many families across Cork and, having worked with Good Shepherd Cork for a number of years, supporting their annual Toy Drive felt like the perfect fit. Every toy donated, big or small, will create a brighter festive season for those who need it most, and we are really hoping the local community will get this community initiative.
Join us in making a difference this Christmas
Each donation we receive will be delivered straight to a family who needs support. If you’re planning a visit to our store in December, or if you live nearby and want to contribute, we’d be glad to accept your gift and make sure it reaches those who will truly benefit from it.
