Family-run RB Windows, Doors and Conservatories, of Walsall Road, Cannock, which has been trading for 37 years, wanted to give something back to the community.

Roger Benton has been running the Cracking Christmas for local kids campaign for the last 10 years.

He would usually ask people to donate toys, however due to Covid-19 restrictions he has had to change how the appeal worked to ensure it was safe.

Roger, organiser of the appeal and director of RB Windows said: “We run the campaign every year, and this year has been an exceptional one.

“I run Cracking Christmas for local kids to give toys to children and families who haven’t got any money.”

In total, the appeal has raised £3,250 to buy toys for children in need with the help of donations from residents and local businesses.
