Oxfam Ireland's new Christmas 2005 Unwrapped alternative gift catalogue is the charities biggest yet.

The Unwrapped catalogue features a range of 23 great gift ideas to suit every budget -starting at just £4 for two water buckets and rising to £5000 to start a business.

As Kate O'Donnell, Oxfam Ireland's Livelihoods coordinator says, "To you, these presents are a fun alternative to more slippers for your dad or another box of chocolates for your auntie. But to the people in Africa we work with, these gifts have life-saving value and can make the difference of being able to feed their families, or give their children an education."

Oxfam expects that its quirky but life saving gifts will compete with the latest toys and gadgets in the must have Christmas present lists as they did last year in the national press.

Top sellers so far include goats, mosquito nets and bicycles.
