PC Pugh said: “This has been another challenging year and I wanted to do something nice for a worthy cause.
“The generosity from our officers and staff was outstanding and it will mean so many children will have a Christmas they can enjoy and remember.
“I have no doubt that these donations will put a smile on the face of so many children and we hope to continue with this support in coming years.”

"I’m sure our colleagues working Christmas Day on the children’s ward will also enjoy giving out presents too.
