Father Christmas Tours of Loddon Valley
Each year, Father Christmas and his elves tour the Loddon Valley Lions area, bringing joy to children young and old! The tours usually commence on the 1st December and continue through to 23rd December (excluding Sundays).
Tours commence:
- 6:15pm Mondays to Thursdays
- 5:45pm Fridays
- 4:15pm Saturdays
- and continue through until about 9pm each evening.
We will deliver leaflets to around 14,000 homes in our area, setting out the tour programme. The leaflet will also contain a Childrens' Colouring Competition and further copies of this can be downloaded from this site from about mid November onwards.
During his tours, Father Christmas is always keen to collect any unused spectacles you may have, so please save these up during the year and hand them to Father Christmas during his tours. These spectacles are refurbished at a factory in Le Havre which is wholly owned by the Lions Clubs of France. Following refurbishment, the spectacles are distributed to countries of the developing world, where the cost of such items is often beyond the financial reach of many people. Thus, through this project many people are able to enjoy the gift of near normal vision, who would not otherwise have had such an opportunity.
