It’s been an absolute pleasure to run our Toy Collection initiative again this year. This time, we opened it up to all our customers across our milkrounds. Turns out, you lot are brilliant and went above and beyond with your donations.
Over the past few weeks, our drivers have collected a little something extra on their usual rounds, toy bags filled with games, teddies, books, and all sorts of treasures ready for their next adventure.
🎁 85+ boxes + 10 bags of toys sent to surrounding charity shops
💚 £388 donated to the MS Society from bag sales
But here’s what really got us. It wasn’t just the toys. It was the notes tucked inside some of the bags. The care taken to make sure everything was clean and in good nick. The fact that so many of you went out of your way to be part of something that helps local families.
That’s the community spirit we’re all about.
Where your toys have gone
We’ve sorted through every single donation and worked with local charities near our hubs, such as Toys 4 Life and The MS Society Altrincham shop, to make sure these toys end up where they’re needed most. The £388 raised from the toy bags will be donated to The MS Society.
What’s next?
This whole initiative got us thinking. Our milkrounds are already at your door three times a week. We’re already built for convenience. So why stop at milk and eggs?
What if we could help with other things too? Collecting donations, recycling. We’re exploring what else we can do to make doing good feel effortless.
Thank you
From everyone at Modern Milkman, our drivers, our hub teams, and the local charities who’ve welcomed these donations with open arms, thank you.
You’ve turned everyday deliveries into something a little bit special. And that’s exactly what this community is all about.
Here’s to more small steps, and the big impact they create. 💚
