Lewisham little shoppers meet Santa

Lewisham Shopping invited local children to write to Santa suggesting why they deserved a special gift.

Nine children from across the borough will this week get their wish after a sack full of letters were delivered to Santa in his snowy woodland cottage.

Becky Pancer will be taking her little nephew Ryell aged three. Becky said that a special Santa treat would make any Christmas "because children who have no money have to see others and must feel left out."

Lots of children echoed Becky’s sentiments. Seven year old Jaheim said he wanted his sister aged one to have a special Christmas and meeting Santa would be just great!

Says Paul Redden, Centre Manager at Lewisham Shopping: “We are delighted to be able to give some of Lewisham’s little shoppers the treat of a free visit to our Grotto and the joy of receiving a very special gift from our Santa.”
