Toys have been donated to the Children's Burns Unit at Broomfield Hospital, Chelmsford, after an appeal by a travel agent.

Travelcare, based in Market Road, Chelmsford, launched an appeal in November to collect toys for the burns unit and has just delivered them.

Staff were overwhelmed by the response to its request for Christmas gifts and toys to fill Santa's sack and help bring a smile to the faces of the children over the festive period.
