Welcome to the home of Chiltern Toy Bank

Chiltern Toy Bank has been working in the Chesham and Amersham area for over 8 years. We collect unwanted toys, or generously donated new toys and redistribute them to families who need extra support at Christmas time. The incredible donations we receive from local organisations and individuals help families make Christmas a little more special for their children.

As a Charity we rely heavily on volunteers who give up their time around Christmas to become our Toy Bank Elves, helping collect, clean, sort, pick, pack and deliver gifts to families in time for Christmas.

We are supported by other incredible organisations and receive some funding through local and Government schemes. This allows us to run our warehouse, buy those extra touches for stocking fillers and provide families with wrapping paper, sellotape and batteries, so Christmas is no longer a stressful day, but a time to enjoy!

If you’re a parent or guardian who may need our support this year, registrations will open on 31st October 2023.

If you would like to donate toys to Chiltern Toy Bank, we will be opening our collection points in November this year.

You can make a monetary donation to us by using the ‘Donate through our PayPal Giving Fund’

If you would like any more information about volunteering with Chiltern Toy Bank, or are an organisation interested in working with us in future years, we’d love to hear from you!
