Susan Roskell Toy & Gift Drive

The idea for the annual Toy and Gift Drive came about in 2016, after Maitland man, Todd Sheldon, his wife Penny, son, Lachlan and other close family members donated wrapped gifts to the local Reading Cinemas Maitland Wishing Tree appeal to support struggling families during the festive season.

“From there, the annual Toy and Gift Drive was born, with the aim of engaging friends and family and the wider community to support us, and in turn, we support community organisations,” said Mr Sheldon.
