Angus Toy Appeal /Voluntary Action Angus – Keep Little Hands Busy – Referral Guidelines

Referral Guidelines

Angus Toy Appeal are working in partnership with Voluntary Action Angus to deliver a COVID19 “keep little hands busy” appeal.

Families are struggling with staying at home in many ways, keeping children busy is particularly difficult, more so if parents are stressed about money, job security, etc.

We aim to reach these families right now, and supply age appropriate toys, activities and games to help alleviate some of that pressure.

We do sometimes get “doublers” from different agencies, but if in doubt submit your referral to ensure we don’t miss any children out.

If you require specific sensory toys or to assist with learning disabilities, please be specific on your referral.

Due to the urgency, and schools being closed all bags will be delivered straight to the family by a volunteer from Voluntary Action Angus or a committee member. 

Dead line for referrals 

There is no dead line! Who knows how long children and parents will need our support!
