‘Tis the season to be giving – Three Rivers District Council staff and councillors have donated dozens of presents ahead of the festive season.

The wrapped gifts were kindly donated to the Otley Way Family Centre in South Oxhey, which, through its established support network, will distribute the presents to families across Three Rivers.

The Christmas gift donation is an annual initiative by staff and councillors at the district council that demonstrates the authority’s strong commitment to supporting local communities.

Cllr Stephen King, Chair of Three Rivers District Council, said: “Every child and family in our district should have some festive joy this Christmas. I am once again amazed by the acts of kindness from our staff and my fellow councillors. I thank everyone who has made a generous donation.”
