Grotto leaves the Exchange Shopping Centre

Date published: 18 February 2014


The Santa's Grotto that Rochdale Lions has organised in the Exchange Shopping Centre is to leave after eight years.

The Grotto helped the club to fund raise for people throughout Rochdale.

Vice President of Rochdale Lions, Eileen Taylor said: “The members of Rochdale Lions Club would like to thank the people of Rochdale and the Exchange management team for all of the support they have given to us over the last eight years.”

Lorenzo O’Reilly, Rochdale Exchange Manager, said: “We are very grateful to the volunteers at Rochdale Lions for the Santa’s grotto they have created at the shopping centre in previous years. We have enjoyed working in partnership with them.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank them very much for their hard work.”

The Lions are currently looking for a new venue and hope to see their regular supporters in their new venue.
