Thank you to our amazing customers!

Our milkmen have delivered some festive cheer to poorly children and vulnerable families with a series of special early morning deliveries this week. 

Hundreds of gifts of new toys for girls and boys of all ages were donated by customers and staff of family-owned dairy Mortons Dairies to local charities: KIND, Zoe’s Place, Five Children and Families Trust, The Isabella Trust and The Venny in Speke.

In an annual tradition, Mortons Dairies collect toys from kind-hearted customers all over Merseyside and drop them off from a special Christmas milk float at local charities in the run up to the big day.

Stephen Yip MBE, founder of KIND Liverpool, the children's charity which has helped tens of thousands of children and their families from across Liverpool and Merseyside cope with the effects of disadvantage and poverty, said:

“We’d like to thank all our supporters this year. This kind of generosity enables us to continue fulfilling our work to support the families who need it most across our region.”

Donna Lauder of Five Children & Families Trust in Speke, said:

“I can't believe the generosity and support people have shown this year especially after the dreadful year we have all had. This really helps us on our mission to make sure that no child goes without at Christmas.. On behalf of all children centre staff and our families we’d like to thank everyone who has supported us this year.”

Julian Harrison, joint managing director of Mortons Dairies, said:

“It has been a challenging year for everybody, not least for the most vulnerable families in our local community. We’ve had an amazing response from our customers and we’d like to thank all our customers across the region and all our staff who took part in collecting and delivering the toys.”
