Santa Claus is coming to town thanks to South Holland Rotary

The South Holland Rotary Club will be taking Santa Claus out and about around Spalding again this December while raising money for local charities.

From December 2-22 the volunteers will be pulling Christmas’s main man around for all the children to see.
You can donate to the Rotary Club and the charities it supports without even leaving your home.
You can text NOEL 3 to 70480 to donate £3. Change the 3 to whatever number you wish to donate any other amount e.g. NOEL 1 or NOEL 5 to donate £1 or £5. Remember you need the bill payer’s permission.
Texts will cost your standard network charge plus the cost of your donation.
A spokesman said: “This is a simple system which we hope will be well supported.
“We are always grateful for the support we get from the generous people of Spalding.
“South Holland Rotarians with Santa and all our helpers are hoping for good weather during December.
“We wish everyone a happy and healthy season of good will and an especially healthy and successful New Year. Let us hope we can put the troubles of Covid-19 behind us all and look forward to a brighter future.”
