The Magpie Project is being supported by Westfield Stratford in the run up to Christmas. 

Find Westfield’s Giving Tree in their Shopping Mall, pick a label from the tree, buy the present, attach the label and drop it at the collection point.

Don’t worry about wrapping – they have lots of willing volunteers for that.

They are seeking presents for babies and toddlers under two.

and toddlers under two. Santa is planning an early drop for the Magpie Project’s minis – so last purchases by the 13th December please.
