LETTER: Santa sleigh run was a great success

Spalding Lions would like to say a big thank you to all the residents of the villages that we recently visited with Santa.

We have had one of the most successful years of raising money and it would not be so without your kind donations.

We would also like to say thank you to Morrisons and Sainsburys supermarkets for supporting us.

Thank you to all those businesses that offer support either helping the sleigh run smoothly or giving produce that we give to our elderly residents.

The money that we raise is to help our community in Spalding and the area.

This is the busiest time of the year for Spalding Lions joining together to bring some festive cheer to the community.

Santa is warmly welcomed by all on his visits, he makes sure that those that wish to speak to him are given the opportunity to let him hear their Christmas wish.

Volunteer helpers join us on this mammoth task making it possible that a wide area of the district is visited.

All these organisations will receive a donation from Spalding Lions.

When not with the sleigh Spalding Lions visit some of the elderly residents of Spalding giving them a musical evening with carols and songs from their era.

These evenings are received with much enthusiasm from the elderly residents.

Once again a big thank you to all of those involved with our Christmas activities.

We will be doing various fund raising events during 2015 and we hope to see you all there.

Wishing you all the very best for 2015.

Spalding Lions
