This year just like every year thousands of children in poverty will wake up to a Christmas without presents.

Over the last few years that Radio Aire have been running Radio Aire Cash for Kids, we here at Buttercup Lane Childminders have purchased extra Christmas presents and denoted them to the appeal. This year we have asked all our parents to buy just one extra present. A gift that we’ll take to Radio Aire who will give them to disadvantaged children to make their Christmas morning that little bit brighter.

Radio Aire’s Mission Christmas is looking for new and unwrapped gifts suitable for children and young people aged 0 to 18 years.

They are also excepting cash donations at various locations and shopping centres throughout Leeds. If you cant help – please do so and hopefully make someone’s Christmas that little bit extra special.

Buttercup Lane Childminders have also arranged for our extra special quest to help deliver our extra large box of presents to the Radio Aire studio’s and its our intention to try and get him mentioned on the radio. At some point in the next 2 weeks (work permitting) @LeedsTed will be making another appearance at East Ardsley Childminders and he will help us make Leeds a more Child Friendly place this Christmas. Its a sad thought to think that some children will be waking up this christmas and not have the luxury of opening one single present. Radio Aire’s Mission Christmas & Buttercup Lane Childminders contribution from our customers will help bring smiles to a number of children.
