A Worcester care home has joined forces with a church for a Christmas toy drive.

Care UK's Perry Manor, on Charles Hastings Way, has teamed up with Holy Trinity and St Matthew's Church in Ronkswood to encourage the community to donate new toys and gifts for children in need.

The campaign will be live at the care home until Monday, December 16, and is located in the care home’s reception area.

Staff are encouraging people to donate gifts such as dolls, teddy bears, books, educational games, and clothes for children aged from 0 to 18 years old.

Home manager, Katherine Matthews, said: "At Perry Manor, we are always looking for ways to give back and support our community and local charities, which is why we are thrilled to be partnering with Holy Trinity and St Matthew's Church to bring some Christmas magic to children who may otherwise go without.

"We encourage everyone to drop by and donate gifts that will bring a smile to a child’s face this festive season."
