Freshney Place Shopping Centre has launched our Have a Heart campaign this week in partnership with Home Start Lincolnshire, Harbour Place and the NSPCC.

The annual campaign embraces the season of giving by offering the public an opportunity to donate a gift to a young person in the local area, who might otherwise not receive anything this Christmas.

Customers are asked to take a tag from the tree located at the Customer Service Desk which contains a child’s age and gender, buy a gift and return the unwrapped gift and tag back to the Customer Service Desk.

The Customer Service Desk is located on Baxtergate near HMV.

If your children are lucky enough to be on the nice list this year then you’ll find all sorts of brilliant toy ideas at ‘Santa’ Entertainer! With a huge amount of amazing toys available in store, you will see their faces light up as they unwrap their presents under the Christmas tree!
