An estate agent is collecting Christmas presents to help disadvantaged children.

Cardwells Estate Agents is an official drop-off point for the Mission Christmas charity campaign, in association with CashForKids.

The estate agents are asking people to donate gifts, which will be given to children across Greater Manchester, who may not otherwise receive a present on Christmas Day.

The gifts must be new, unwrapped, and dropped off at Cardwells Estate Agents Bolton office by December 16.

Andrew Cardwell, managing director of Cardwells, said: "We are trying to help out in a small way by collecting Christmas presents for children who may not otherwise receive something this year.

"We are working collaboratively with this fabulous charity and are proud to provide our Bolton Town Centre office as an official drop-off point if anyone would like to donate a present for a child this Christmas.

"We know this Christmas is going to be hard for lots of people, and we are trying to do a little something to help those who may need extra support this year.

"Perhaps you could consider buying one extra present this year to donate?

"It could make the world of difference to one child’s Christmas."

This is the fifth year Cardwells has collaborated with CashForKids on the Mission Christmas campaign.

Mr Cardwell said: "The kindness of the good people of Bolton never ceases to amaze me, and the presents have already started being dropped off.

"One wonderful couple have been buying an extra item each week for the last few months and delivered two large sacks of goodies to us earlier this week.

"People are incredibly kind."
