The people of Derry are being called on to support a toy appeal in aid of the children of Gaza in Palestine.
The call comes from Sinn Fein Cllr Colly Kelly who said toys donated to the ”Gaza Toy Drive” would be included in a ship of essential supplies leaving for Palestine at the end of next month.
He said: ““We are asking everyone to search their homes and hearts and give generously to the ‘Gaza Toy Drive.’
Cllr Colly Kelly.
“Our local councillors and I have been approached by lots of people in Derry who are outraged and feel helpless at what is happening in Gaza especially to the children.
“There is a ship going from Ireland, England and Denmark at the end of August to Gaza and we need to fill it with essential supplies.”
Donations can be left at the Gasyard Centre by Monday next, 4 August.
Opening times are 9.00am – 9.00pm Thursday and Monday, and 9.00am – 5.00pm on Friday.
