On Tuesday 12th December we hosted the Lower Valley Christmas Party, our last event of the year! This was a universal event and all families across the Lower Valley reach area were invited to attend the event at Savage Hall in Elland. We had 65 attendees join in the fun with us as we partied and played games with Spike Bonzo! Spike was a fantastic entertainer with his amazing party skills and amusing singing voice!
We also had another VIP visitor – The one and only Mrs Claus! Accompanied by her special helper Ella Elf! Children and families were welcomed into our beautiful pop-up grotto, where each and every child received a special gift.
Alongside the entertainment we had a dedicated baby sensory area, bauble decorating, biscuit making, face painting and reindeer food stalls available for children and families to access. We also provided a free cold buffet for all attendees.
Here is some of the feedback we received:
“Fabulous Christmas Party, well organised, plenty of activities and Mrs Claus was AMAZING! Well done all involved and thank you.”
“We have loved this Christmas event. My eldest daughter loves the facepainting, decorating biscuits, crafts, seeing Mrs Claus and the magic show. And my youngest loved playing with the toys. It’s been amazing.”
“Once again really lovely, well organised event. Elsie loved Spike Bonzo! Thank you so much, we have both had a lovely time.”
“Lovely event, Zara enjoyed every minute. Nice to see families enjoying themselves, great way to meet new people. Thank you.”
“Really great event thank you. Lots of great fun activities and lovely party tea.”
A special thank you as always to our amazing staffing team who worked super hard behind the scenes in ensuring the event was a great success.
Also, a special thanks to Tesco Brighouse, Morrisons Elland and Asda Bradley for supporting the event and providing presents for all children who attended.
