A West Belfast community has rallied together to ensure that no family in their area will be suffering this Christmas.
In just four weeks, the Glen Community Parent/Youth Group and Lenadoon Women's Group have collected hundreds of toys, for children and teenagers, meat vouchers, heating vouchers and more. And they say without surrounding sports teams, businesses, families and well-known sporting stars, what they have achieved wouldn't have been possible.
At the appeal event on Friday, family support and youth workers said that the response had surpassed all of their expectations.
