A Donegal doll-maker has topped the poll in the Independent Toy Awards in the UK.
The new Lottie doll is seen as a safe doll for Donegal children
Arklu Dolls, who are based in the CoLab in Letterkenny, won the dolls section of the prestigious awards for their doll Lottie.
The company’s managing director Ian Harkin, from Ballybofey, said he was delighted by the award.
The awards, which are judged by toymakers, celebrate the toys they think parents should be buying this Christmas.
Mr Harkin said “We are delighted and we are very proud of the Lottie range.
“Our doll is a responsible doll and a lot of thought has gone into what she looks like and the message she takes to children.
“We are delighted we have been rewarded for this effort.”
