With the help of his friends from Hereford Lions Club , Santa moves into his smart new Grotto at Oakchurch on Saturday , November 18 and will be in residence every weekend 11am to 4pm right up to Saturday December 23 .
Nick Price , a partner in the family business said : “ We are delighted Santa accepted our invitation to join us here at Oakchurch to welcome families as they prepare for the magical festive celebrations , especially on Christmas Eve when he delivers presents for the children . For children , the opportunity to tell Father Christmas what ’ s on their present list , have a friendly chat and some sweets in-stills in them the real spirit of Christmas . It is a time of great joy and we want to make their visit to the Grotto very special and one they will remember ”
Grotto team leader John Edmunds said : “ Lions Club members have for many decades helped Santa keep alive the wonderful traditions of Christmas , especially for the children who turn out in their thousands to meet him on his Sleigh tour of Hereford and surrounding villages in the weeks before
Christmas Day and for many a visit to Santa ’ s Grotto truly is a highlight of a wondrous festive season .”
He added : “ After many years at Wyevale Garden Centre it was felt it was time Santa ’ s Grotto had a change of scenery and what better a venue than Oakchurch , set in the heart of the Herefordshire countryside where families can combine a visit for the children to the Grotto with some prime shopping time in a store that has just about everything needed to fill the stockings with presents and lay on a festive feast on Christmas day . We guarantee you a warm and friendly welcome to Santa ’ s Grotto at Oakchurch .”
THERE IS NO CHARGE TO VISIT SANTA IN HIS GROTTO . LIONS CLUB WILL GRATEFULLY ACCEPT DONATIONS TO HELP SUPPORT LOCAL CHARITIES . DON ’ T FORGET THE CAMERA TO TAKE PHOTOS OF YOUR YOUNGSTERS WITH SANTA
