Travel's toy bank
As part of our Secret Santa campaign, holidaymakers can support an initiative that aims to fundraise to buy toys for disadvantaged children when they book a trip away.
Every time our travel experts in our 13 branches help someone book their holiday, they’ll give the customer the option of donating £1 towards the cause.
These pounds are collected throughout the year and this small gesture soon adds up to a big donation! These donations are then used to buy toys/gifts for local toy appeals.
Throughout November, our travel branches will also be acting as collection points for those wishing to donate new toys and gifts.
We work with local community-based groups that run existing toy appeals and all the toys are donated to these amazing groups to help people who may be struggling over the festive period.
In 2023, we received over £11,906 and were able to purchase around 1,245 toys and gifts for a range of ages.
