Ringwood and District Round Table announce Santa’s fundraising sleigh tour of Forest towns

SANTA Claus is coming to several towns – thanks to the Ringwood and District Round Table.

St Nick’s sleigh tour of Forest communities begins on 6th December with a visit to Burley and Bransgore, followed by a trip to St Leonard’s and St Ives on 7th December.

The tour continues on 8th December with a visit to Ringwood, followed by Verwood on 13th, Fordingbridge on 14th and Poulner on 15th.

A Round Table spokesperson said: “Santa's Sleigh Tour is not just about the spirit of Christmas but also about giving back to those in need, having raised over £6,500 since its return in 2020 along with collecting almost five tonnes of food for local foodbanks.

“This year, the charity group are proud to partner with "Hope for Food" a local foodbank dedicated to eradicating food poverty in our community. As Santa visits various towns and villages, he will be collecting money as well as non-perishable food donations for this noble cause.”
