Santa Sleigh doing the rounds of villages in West Suffolk
Santa is on his way to a place near you!
Organised by the Forest Heath Crime Prevention Panel, the Santa Sleigh will be doing the rounds this year in Mildenhall, Brandon, Lakenheath, Red Lodge, West Row and Kentford.
Crime Prevention Panel Chair, Wanda Betts said: “Our chosen charity for donations this year is The Suffolk Lowland Search and Rescue; a truly a worthy cause which is often called upon by police to help search for missing persons.”
In addition to organising the Christmas fundraising event, the panel works closely with the local Constabulary in holding crime prevention events and offering advice to the public.
The schedule for ‘Santa’s’ venues are as follows: (Please note, that on each date the sleigh will make its first stop at 6pm and remain at each venue for 20-minutes).
