Swan and Bottle pub toy appeal
AN UXBRIDGE pub is appealing for its customers to donate toys for sick children who will be in Hillingdon Hospital over Christmas.
The Swan and Bottle pub, in Oxford Road, Uxbridge, would like customers to donate a toy when they go in for a drink or meal.
Prizes from local businesses have also been donated for a raffle to raise funds for the children's ward at Hillingdon Hospital in Pield Heath Road, Uxbridge.
Christmas coordinator at the pub, Stephanie Lockwood, said: "My daughter's doctor is the head of paediatrics at the hospital and when I was there I asked him whether many children stayed over Christmas and he said unfortunately many did. That's how we chose the charity."
Donated toys can be left at the pub during opening hours.
