For poorly children in hospital, Christmas can be an incredibly difficult time. But toy company Vivid Goliath has helped bring festive cheer to children and their families by supporting a Christmas giving initiative at University College London Hospital (UCLH).

This year, toy company Vivid Goliath donated gifts for the children including the surprise-filled Secret Findees Magic Mailboxes and Sky Dancers dolls which dance as you pull the magical string. They also donated the squishy, stretchy Let’s Go Axoloti toys, the auto-extending Power Sabers for epic ‘battles’ and the brilliant Murdle board game for kids aged 12+. 'An incredible privilege to see the joy our efforts bring to the children' Louise says: ‘The project has grown significantly over the last five years as the number of patients and ward spaces has sadly increased. Despite the challenges, it’s an incredible privilege to see the joy our efforts bring to the children, their families and the hardworking nurses who support them through unimaginably difficult times.’ A spokesperson for the toy company said: ‘Goliath are thrilled to be involved with the Christmas Toy Giving initiative at UCLH.
