Brimrod Primary’s Christmas collection for refugee children from Afghanistan

Date published: 06 December 2021


Pupils at Brimrod Primary School have collected a vast array of donations to be given to refugee families in need over the festive period.

The Rochdale school was initially contacted by a school in Manchester, asking to help them support the children who have come over from Afghanistan in recent months.

Over the last few weeks, the children and the community of Brimrod Primary School rallied round and donated a huge quantity of new toys, books, and stationery that can be distributed to these children and families in need this Christmas.
