Santa Claus is coming to town! Here’s where you can see Rotary Club’s sleigh

Santa will once again be touring the streets of Brightlingsea and surrounding areas in the run-up to Christmas – thanks to the Brightlingsea and District Rotary Club.

The fund-raising tour raises thousands of pounds for local organisations including Porridge & Pens, Brightlingsea Hospice Group, 4 Youth, Brightlingsea Lido and Brightlingsea in Bloom.

For the first time Santa’s helpers have a card reader to take donations, which can also be made online at www.santasleighbrightlingsea.com. Look out for the sleigh from 6pm at the following locations:
