Santa Is Coming To Broadwindsor Tonight

With thanks to Rotary Club of Brit Valley, Father Christmas will be riding his sleigh through Salway Ash from 5pm this evening and arriving at Broadwindsor school for 7.15pm – 8pm!

This is the first time since the Covid outbreak that Santa has been able to organise this journey. Please take your little ones out to see Santa and give him your support and then he’ll be able to plan the same for next year 🙂

Merry Christmas!
