A huge thank-you to all of you

In the middle three weeks of December we escorted Father Christmas around the streets of Epsom accompanied by Tilly the train and a band of helpers from local youth associations.  We wwre also helped by Wilsons of Epsom on two of the nights, when they provided a driver and a Santa Claus

It was a truly wonderful experience with young children and adults saying how delighted they were to see Santa Claus; and they gave generously to help local charities.  This year we were able to knock on people's doors again and they seemed pleased to see us after the COVID lay-off.

Because of Social Media such as WhatsApp, children were ready and waiting for us.  It was a wonderful sight when we started down a street to see little groups in the darkness waiting.  Tilly was also happy to have so many photos taken of her!!

We raised around £6000 for local charities, which included the youth organisations who helped us, so we are quietly content and now ready for the mulled wine and mince pies!
