PEOPLE in Helensburgh and Lomond are asked to help spread Christmas joy with a new appeal.
Community project Helensburgh and Lochside Community Helping Others is looking for donations of unwrapped gifts or gift vouchers for children, teenagers and adults.
There will be various drop off points across the region including Cove Country Store, Rosneath Castle Park, Garelochhead medical centre, Rosslea Hall Hotel, Football Fun Factory, Rhu Inn and Grasshoppper Toy Shop in Helensburgh.
Drop offs can also be made at Laggary Road in Rhu and 13 Benmore School Road in Kilcreggan.
Rosslea Hall Hotel is inviting people for a community day on Sunday, December 8 from 12-4pm.
A spokesperson said: "Your generosity will help make Christmas unexpectedly joyful for those who need it most.
"This special charity event is part of our commitment to giving back to the community. Let’s come together to make a difference and share the true spirit of Christmas."
