December is a very busy time for Father Christmas and sadly we fear he is likely to be tied up with getting presents ready on the 8th. If you know of a suitable stand-in for him, who would be happy to help out at our Christmas on the Hill event, please let us know.

We hope it will be useful for refilling water bottles and also for thirsty four-legged friends on walks around the town.
