Shelter Scotland have 73 boys and girls - aged from 6 months to 16 years - at their South Lanarkshire services who might not get a present this year.

Does your house have any art supplies no longer being used? Or a Ben 10 action toy needing a new home? Or when Xmas shopping you could maybe pick up something extra to make a child's Christmas one they'll never forget.

Donations can be made to the families project at the Blantyre office - in person or via post (why not pay Amazon a wee visit).

I'll be sending a toy to the Blantyre project this week, I'd urge everyone who follows me on twitter to do the same. Lets make it a really special Christmas.
