In 2020 I had an idea to fix as many games consoles as I could and donate them to charity for Christmas, but the places I researched wouldn't accept electronic gifts on Christmas for children, and that's completely understandable.

This year I wanted to do something about that. £1,000 is a CRAZY target to set, but to put that into perspective, it would be providing 40 children who don't have anything on Christmas with plenty of gifts. I'll be doing this by doing a "fixing" consoles livestream  (https://www.youtube.com/joeydoestech) on the 11th December to raise as much as we can. I'll then continue to add the link onto my YouTube page until Christmas Eve. 

In the stream I'll be trying to fix as many consoles as I possibly can. This could range from smaller handheld devices such as Nintendo DS Lites, up to bigger consoles such as Xbox Ones! For every console I can fix in the livestream, I will personally donate £25 to the charity.

The Toy Appeal was started in 2013 by Chris & Dee Drake when they provided toy sacks to 500 children, to date they have provided 22,000 toy sacks to disadvantaged children in the UK and in 2021 they aim to support another 8,000 children.The Toy Appeal is run entirely by volunteers whose mission is to ensure all children have presents to open on Christmas morning, we want to ensure all children experience the magic of Christmas. Each child receive a red sack filled with 8 items suitable to their age. £25 will provide a toy sack for a child, schools, social workers, refuges and foodbank can request a toy sack for a child. Together lets Give a Child a Christmas.
