Staff at the Alloa branch of Yorkshire Building Society are collecting children’s items to support the local charity Love in a Box this festive season.
The branch, located at 25 High Street, is serving as an official donation station for the charity, welcoming contributions of cosy socks, hats, gloves, and personal hygiene items such as shower gel and toothpaste.
Donations will help ensure children across the community who might otherwise miss out receive a Christmas present.
Andy Robertson, branch manager at Alloa, said: “We are proud to be able to support Love in a box in our community in Alloa and we really want to help make a difference to those that are in need with our collection station.
"Items can be dropped off at the branch until Monday December 1, and we are grateful for any donations, large or small.”
Margaret Douglas, from Love in a Box, added: “We work closely with agencies in the local community including education, social, health and volunteering to ensure no child or young person goes without at Christmas.
"We are really grateful that Yorkshire Building Society in Alloa are collecting these much-needed items for us that will help us continue to provide our services.”
Those wishing to support Love in a Box can find more information or donate online at Love in a Box Clackmannanshire – JustGiving.
Donations can be dropped off at the branch during the following times:
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday: 9am – 2:30pm
- Wednesday: 9:30am – 2:30pm
