Families are being invited to enjoy a little Christmas magic when Santa Claus and his elves pay a special visit to Dovercourt.
Children will have the chance to meet the great man and his festive helpers at the East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) shop in Main Road between 10am and 3pm on Saturday, 19th December.
The visit is free of charge, and every child will receive a gift. While donations are welcome, there is no charge to attend.
The festive event aims to bring some seasonal cheer while raising awareness of EACH’s work supporting children, young people and their families across East Anglia.
Shop Manager Kathryn Newell said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming Santa and his elves to Dovercourt and can’t wait to spread some festive cheer in the run-up to Christmas.
“This time of year is all about bringing people together, and we hope lots of families come along to enjoy the fun and make memories.
“Santa’s taking time out of his busy schedule to visit us, and we’re incredibly grateful.
“Whether you’re popping in to meet him, pick up a festive bargain or simply soak up the atmosphere, we look forward to welcoming everyone through our doors.
“Every donation, no matter how small, helps support the vital care and support we provide, so it really will be a wonderful way to celebrate the season of giving.”
EACH’s Dovercourt shop is open Monday to Saturday from 9am to 5pm.
