THE Holsworthy and Launceston branches of RGB Building Supplies has expressed its gratitude to the local community for donating gifts to its 2018 ‘Christmas Giving Tree Appeal’ in aid of Children’s Hospice South West.

The builders merchant invited customers to donate gifts so that hampers of presents could be given to every family being supported by the hospice over the festive period.

The  donations have now been passed on to the charity in time to be given out on Christmas day.

Children’s Hospice South West is RGB Building Supplies’ chosen charity and the builders merchant is continuing its support in 2019 by taking part in the charity’s £50 challenge.

RGB’s branches will see how much can be raised in one day with an investment of just £50.
