🎄🎁 THE SCARBOROUGH TOY APPEAL 2026 HAS LAUNCHED! 🎁🎄
It might seem early to be talking about Christmas… but for thousands of children across our area, making Christmas special starts right now. ❤️
Headed up by Nigel Wood from Peace of Mind Finance, and in partnership with the Rotary Club of Scarborough, the Toy Appeal is back for 2026 – and this year the ambition is bigger than ever.
🎯 50,000 NEW toys
🎯 Around 5,000 local children
🎯 One huge community effort to make Christmas special
And already, a fantastic group of local businesses, organisations and community partners are behind the 2026 appeal and committed to helping make it happen:
🎁 Peace of Mind Finance
🎁 James Cliffe MBE
🎁 Westborough Church
🎁 Scarborough Rugby Club
🎁 Scarborough Athletic FC

And we’re hoping that list will get a LOT longer!
Whether you're a business, community group, school, sports club or simply an individual who wants to help, there are lots of ways you can get involved.
Over the coming days and weeks, we’ll be sharing more information about the different ways you can support the Toy Appeal – from donating toys and organising collections to getting your workplace, school, club or community group involved.
So keep an eye on the Toy Appeal updates and please share them with anyone you think might like to get involved. ❤️
Because behind that huge target of 50,000 toys are around 5,000 children who deserve to wake up on Christmas morning with something to open.
It’s about more than toys. It’s about giving children a little bit of Christmas magic, and making sure families across our community know that people care.
And if there’s one thing we know about Scarborough, it’s that when our community pulls together, we can do some pretty amazing things. 💛
50,000 toys. 5,000 children. One incredible community.
Let’s make Christmas special. 🎄❤️
