THURROCK Council's 'Give a Gift' is back for a seventh year. It hopes to give gifts to hundreds of Thurrock children – known to the borough council's children's services teams – who may receive few, if any, presents.

A statement from the council says: "We understand this is a difficult time for many but we are asking once again for your generosity to help those children for whom Christmas can be a difficult time of year.

"You can donate a gift either by:

• choosing a gift from our online gift list and buying it yourself
• donating a gift at one of our drop-off points around the borough."
