From today you can drop toys off at the city centre Roxburghe Hotel as it becomes a local toy drop off point for Cash for Kids Mission Christmas. Bauer Radio’s charity’s the aim of ensuring that any child or young person will have a gift to wake up to on Christmas Day.
New, unwrapped gifts suitable for those aged 0 to 18 can be dropped off at The Roxburghe Hotel’s reception from anytime between the 14 November and 14 December.

Marcello Ventisei, general manager of The Roxburghe Hotel, said: “We’re delighted to play our part for such a great cause. It’s such a simple but effective way of making sure that children and young people living in more difficult circumstances still wake up to a gift on Christmas day. We would encourage anyone passing the hotel, staying with us or attending our Christmas party nights to donate a gift no matter how small.”
Last year the Mission raised £10.6 million in gifts and cash which helped 315,000 local children celebrate Christmas.
The Roxburghe Hotel is situated in Charlotte Square Edinburgh.
