Dropping off your gift
Getting your gift to us
We will be running two drop off weekends where we can receive and check-in your allocated child's gift. You can find the dates, times and locations for this below.
Drop off location: GTW Storage, 42-52 Brown Street, Glasgow, G2 8PD
Driving directions (videos):
The links below each contain a video of the driving route into the drop off from various different entry points.
- Driving into town from South of the river, across George V bridge
- Driving from South of the river, across the squinty bridge at Finnieston
- Driving from the North of the city on the M8 Westbound, exiting at Clydebank (Exit 19)
- Driving M8 Eastbound, exiting City Centre
Please note: The drop off is in the LEZ zone of the city centre but very close to Central Station, and all major bus links (for those who do not have a compliant vehicle).
Drop off dates
| Date | Time |
| Saturday, 23 November | 10am - 4pm |
| Sunday, 24 November | 10am - 4pm |
| Saturday, 30 November | 10am - 4pm |
| Sunday, 1 December (last day) | 10am - 4pm |
IMPORTANT: Please ensure your gift bag is clearly labelled with your 4-digit PIN number and the age/gender of your allocated child. This is essential so we can mark your allocated child as received.
Emergency local drop offs
If you can, we would be grateful if you could attend our main drop off as noted above as this helps us manage the checking in of your gift more efficiently. (We've also been told by previous pledgers that seeing what you're contributing to with your own eyes is a special experience).
We appreciate however that this is not always possible for some people so if absolutely necessary we have a some local volunteers who can accept your gifts (please see all areas and volunteers below).
If you would like to arrange to drop your gift to them (or in some cases, these volunteers may be able to collect from you), please click their name below - this will open up an email for you to get in touch to arrange.
IMPORTANT: Please ensure your gift bag is clearly labelled with your PIN CODE and your CHILD's AGE and GENDER. This is essential so we can mark your child as recieved.
