Free Grotto Project

Every child should see Santa. The project aims to utilise Christmas Tree Festivals that are run seasonally around the UK to host a FREE magical wonderland and grotto experience. Santa will be accompanied by his elves, who will entertain and provide a gift for every visiting child. Commercial Grottos are increasingly expensive and economic times are challenging for many. Our project trial was a resounding success; 430 children visited Santa at St. Wulfrum's Church in Grantham, Lincolnshire in November 2023. Places booked up in a day and every child visited santa and received a gift. Following the success of our trial, we are working to bring the project to 10 locations around the UK in 2024, making smiles and memories 10,000 children. The trial was funded by our founders who will be launching a fundraising campaign in 2024 to raise donations for the Free Grotto Project expansion in 2024.
