KIND-HEARTED staff at a Brierley Hill estate agents have once again been digging deep and donating presents to dish out to needy groups this Christmas.

Employees at family run firm G & T Properties in Dudley Road collected toys and games which will be donated to the children's ward at Dudley's Russells Hall Hospital, Black Country Foodbank in Brierley Hill and The Haven women's refuge in Wolverhampton.

Managing director Dean Gregg said G&T Properties had contributed £500 towards the appeal and he added: "We have been doing the appeal for five years now, with this year being the most successful to date."

He said the items donated would be distributed on Thursday and Friday this week so recipients receive the gifts in time for Christmas.
