**Thousands of children in the UK will receive a Tigger toy this Christmas, thanks
to a partnership between [In Kind Direct](https://www.inkinddirect.org/) and Disney
Store.**

Forty-six charities across London and the Home Counties, including hospices, nurseries
and family welfare groups, will be receiving the soft toys from Disney Store this
December, with parties and events organised to hand them out.

[Hornsey Lane Estate Community Association](http://hleca.org.uk/), which runs services
to meet the needs of the local community and surrounding areas, is one organisation
that will benefit from the scheme this year.
