Santa saved by Fire engine!!



Santa arrived at his grotto in Wyvale Garden Centre, Dummer in style for his Christmas visit, in a 1970’s fire engine!

Relish People used their business contacts to help out when the original planned transport developed a problem. With the help of Sam Owens of The Studio based in Alton, a fire engine was found. The fire engine, supplied and driven by local man, Den Osman of The Fire Service Preservation Group, provided an excellent alternative.

Every year, Wyvale have a Santa’s Grotto and this year Naomi House, the local children’s hospice helped organise Santa’s visit and his Elf helpers. Just under half of the £5 to see Santa raised goes to the hospice and each child can expect a chance to ask Santa for what they want, and to get choice of some great toys!

Santa can be found at Wyvale Garden Centre Dummer every Saturday 10am- 4pm and every Sunday 11am – 3pm right up to Sunday 23rd!
