JOHN Lewis Trafford has helped brighten Christmas for 300 children by donating £7,000 worth of toys to give out at the Key 103 Cash for Kids Mini Jingle Ball.

Key 103 Cash for Kids supports children experiencing poverty, abuse, neglect and distress in the Manchester area.

The Mini Jingle Ball saw Cash for Kids invite 300 children from in and around Manchester to enjoy a Christmas party at Lancashire Cricket Club.

The day saw the children enjoy games, face painting and a visit from Santa himself.

John Lewis Trafford’s donation meant that every child at the party received a gift, which included Jelly Cats, Lego and perfume or make-up sets.
