Cardwellsin Bolton has launched a Christmas present project to ensure disadvantaged children receive a gift on Christmas morning this year.

The estate agency branch on Institute Street in Bolton town centre is an official drop off point for the Mission Christmas charity campaign in association with CashForKids.

Andrew Cardwell, managing director of Cardwells, commented: “We are trying to help out in a small way by collecting Christmas presents for children who may not otherwise receive something this year.

“We are working collaboratively with this fabulous charity and are proud to provide our Bolton Town Centre office as an official drop of point if anyone would like to donate a present for a child this Christmas.

“We know this Christmas is going to be hard for lots of people, and we are trying to do a little something to help those who may need extra support this year.

“Perhaps you could consider buying one extra present this year to donate? It could make the world of difference to one child’s Christmas.”

The estate agency ran a similar campaign last year with success as heaps of presents dropped off to the office.

Cash4Kids are a grant-giving charity who help children in need around the UK.

There are drop-off points all over the UK and gift ideas include toys for babies, stationery, scarves, colouring books, jigsaws, books, board games, make-up and headphones.
