Santa with Emily and her Grandma Liz White
Santa visited Littleborough Gallery over the weekend to bring goodwill to children and raise funds for Chernobyl Children's Project (CCP) West Pennine Branch.
Many children flooded through the doors to see Santa and tell him what they want for Christmas.
Stuart Carmichael from CCP said: “Santa is pictured here with Emily and her grandma, Liz White, owner of the gallery. Emily was the last of a steady stream of children and parents who visited throughout the morning.”
CCP are now looking for host families to join the group which arranges summer holidays in Littleborough and the surrounding area for Belarusian children in remission from cancer.
Mr Carmichael added: “To find out more phone Lynne on 522559 or Mai on 379318. All you need is a couple of spare beds and a warm heart.”
