Following a fantastic response to the Red Dragon FM Christmas Toy Appeal, EADS and Cardiff Blues have teamed up with Red Dragon FM and Help A South Wales Child charity, to make the New Year a bit brighter for disadvantaged children from all over South Wales.

Have you received a gift this Christmas that you think somebody else would appreciate more than you? 

Following a fantastic response to the Red Dragon FM Christmas Toy Appeal, EADS and Cardiff Blues have teamed up with Red Dragon FM and Help A South Wales Child charity, to make the New Year a bit brighter for disadvantaged children from all over South Wales. 

Due to public generosity, the appeal has now been extended, with more children set to receive unneeded Christmas toys. This could be a spare toy, an unwanted or duplicate gift or just something you would rather give to someone less fortunate than you.

The task of collecting and distributing any donated toys and gifts will take place for the first weeks of January with EADS employees, Cardiff Blues players, the Red Dragon Thunders and volunteers from Help A South Wales Child, teaming together to pack up all the gifts ready for distribution.

Gift donations can be delivered to the drop off points in the Red Dragon reception, at the radio station in Cardiff Bay or to the Cardiff Blues shop, in the city centre until Thursday January 15th. 

Throughout the rest of the year, Help A South Wales Child supports a range of children’s organisations and charities with the donation of grants. The monies typically go to groups that work with children who may be suffering from the effects of abuse, illness, poverty, disability or homelessness. 

So, please help to put a smile on a disadvantaged child’s face in 2009 with EADS, the Cardiff Blues and Red Dragon’s Help A South Wales Child.
