Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council is once again partnering with Habitat for Humanity to help local families and protect our planet through the Pre-Loved Christmas Toy Scheme.
Now in its fourth year, this much-loved initiative encourages residents to donate gently used toys so another child can enjoy them this festive season.
Residents can donate their good-quality, pre-loved toys that are no longer being played with to Habitat for Humanity through our dedicated drop-off points.
