MORE than 220 gifts have been delivered to a children's hospital and coats, jumpers and blankets have been given out to the homeless.
It was all part of a charity scheme by Bents and its customers to help those less fortunate at Christmas.
The Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital and people living on the streets in Piccadilly Gardens benefited from the Glazebury garden centre's charity of the year initiative.
Matthew Bent, managing director at Bents, said: "Our customers and colleagues are always hugely generous when it comes to our charity of the year or any fundraising initiative. We are extremely proud and would like to say a huge thank you."
