Six-year-old Lara-May donates a year's pocket money to children's Christmas charity

Lara-May said she had been saving her money pennies to donate to other children

Meet Lara-May - she's on a special festive mission.

The six-year-old decided to save a year's worth of her pocket money to buy Christmas presents for other children.

Lara-May banked "every penny" given to her by family so she could spend £300 on toys for other children who have less.

The presents are now with a local charity who will distribute Lara-May's gifts.

Lara-May's mum, Shelley, explained that her daughter decided to save "her pocket money all year" but "it wasn't until last week she actually told us what it was for."

The six-year-old said: "I've been saving pennies and now I have £300 to spend on other people."

Shelley added that she was "so proud" of her daughter.

With her savings, Lara-May was able to buy a trolley of toys - which have now been donated to a local charity which supports young people.

The charity said the donation were "so heart warming" and that it will send the presents to families in need, describing Lara-May's kindness as a "blessing".
