Thousands of toys have been going to families in need for Christmas thanks to the tireless work of a Glasgow charity - who admitted it has been one of their toughest years ever.
The generosity of people in such tough times was repeatedly demonstrated, as every time charity founder Audrey Dempsey feared she wouldn’t have enough toys for Christmas this year, the phone would ring and another kind donor would step in.
Labour Councillor Dempsey, who represents the Springburn/Robroyston ward, needed 12,000 toys to distribute to families as part of its Christmas appeal at Glasgow’s No1 Baby and Family Support Service.
