A CHRISTMAS toybank is extending its collection days to both 20th and 21st December after being inundated with donations from the public.
The Ice Box Arts and Music Centre in the Gorbals opened up its doors to donations of kids' Christmas toys on December 13th and the South Side venue has been overflowing with everything from Barbies to Nintendo DS.

Jamie Mcdermid, Director of Ice Box, said: "The reaction has been unbelievable. We've had donations coming in from all over, our pick up van covered 160 miles alone yesterday.
"It's this time of year, everyone is skint. This really helps when you've got kids so come along - no referrals needed, no questions asked."
