HSBC staff have collected 661 Christmas presents worth more than £7,000 for the Southampton Voluntary Services Toy Appeal.
It's a new record for the Nelson Gate office, which has backed the appeal for the past eight years.
Community relationship manager David Fawcett said: "I never expected us to donate so many toys. Our staff are so generous that despite a number of hugely successful charity appeals over the last few months they are still able to support this fantastic appeal."
