This Christmas will feel like more of a financial strain than normal for millions of families due to the cost of living crisis.

Here at Gregory Dean we want to help our local community by easing that pressure in our own little way.

We have partnered with local fundraising super star Lee Clark and transformed him into the coolest Santa Claus around and together we are putting on a FREE story time with Santa in our Leigh salon Dec 10th 11am - 1pm.

The event is for everyone.

If you cannot afford a Santa experience this year then come along and enjoy the story time, grotto and token prezzie from Santa completely free of charge.

And if you are fortunate enough to be able to afford to see Santa then come along and support the event in one or both of the following ways -

* Bring a wrapped prezzie (with a note giving a rough idea of intended recipient) **before 10th Dec** for Santa to give to the children that come for story time.

* And/or come and join in the fun and make a donation equal to the normal cost of your Santa experience to our Little Havens just giving page. (Any left over toys will also be donated here)

Story time will run every 30minutes from the hour. No need to book just turn up and enjoy a Christmassy day out on us.
