Thousands of pounds of toys were donated to Barnardo’s when volunteers took part in a trolley dash at the 2013 Toy Fair.

The children’s charity, whose head office is in Tanners Lane, Barkingside, was the beneficiary of the 60th annual Toy Fair at Kensington Olympia’s Grand Hall last week for the ninth year running.

About 70 volunteers collected a variety of toys on the last day of the exhibition.
