Santa and sleigh to garden centre's rescue
Santa and his sleigh came to the rescue of a garden centre at the weekend.
The Rotary Club of Shrewsbury Severn provided their Santa and brand-new sleigh for the opening of Dobbies Garden Centre’s new Santa Grotto just off the A49.
When Shrewsbury Severn Rotary Club’s president Johnathan Callwood heard that due to mechanical issues Dobbies usual sleigh was unable to deliver Santa, he stepped into the breach.
“We were only too pleased to oblige and it was lovely to be greeted by a queue of excited children and quite a few parents,” he said.
“Our own intensive sleigh programme hasn’t yet begun and so we were able to help out after a last-minute request from the manager.”
