Lara-May banked 'every penny' so she could spend £300 on xmas toys for children living in poverty.

A six-year-old girl saved a year's worth of her pocket money to buy Christmas presents for other children.

Lara-May, from Barrow-in-Furness, banked "every penny" given to her by family so she could spend £300 on toys for children living in poverty.The charity which will send the presents to families in need described her kindness as a "blessing". Lara-May's mum, Shelley, said her daughter had seen an advert about children not receiving Christmas presents which "made her quite upset".

"She saved her pocket money all year and it wasn't until last week she actually told us what it was for," Shelley said.Shelley said she and her daughter often help out at the community kitchen during the festive season so "Lara-May understands more about people who can't afford things"."It's very sad, because some people don't get any presents and it's not fair on them," she added.

The trolley of toys, which include a pack of 10 dolls and Hot Wheels games, were bought in the supermarket Morrisons, which hosts the appeal.''We're seeing more and more poverty so massive need every year.
