For the last two years, we’ve taken Santa’s sleigh to Istead Rise. This year, thanks to our new sleigh and the amazing support from our community, we’re excited to expand to Meopham, spreading cheer over two magical nights!

Let’s make this Christmas brighter for everyone! Thank you for helping us help others.
