Racegoer hopes toy appeal can bring Christmas cheer to children's hospice

Cooper spent £3,000 on gifts for children at three hospices and the Royal Alexandra thanks to two winning bets struck at Cheltenham’s November Meeting. She put pictures of the gifts she purchased with her winnings on Twitter and received hundreds of other presents from people wishing to support her charitable effort. Cooper will put all the pictures up on GalaBid and let the highest bidder win. The plan is to take the presents to Chestnut Tree House in Arundel and Royal Alexia Children”s Hospital in Brighton. The link to the auction on GalaBID can be found alongside the link on her Amazon wish list for those wanting to donate a toy directly to her appeal.
