Meridian Shopping Centre is delighted to announce that its popular Santa’s Grotto raised nearly £2,400 for three local charities over Christmas.
A much-loved annual tradition, the Meridian Santa’s Grotto offers families an affordable opportunity to meet Santa and his magical elves whilst supporting vital community causes. This year, the funds raised have been donated to Rowans Hospice, Chestnut Tree House, and Beacon Food Bank, each receiving £796.
Havant’s Mayor, Councillor Peter Wade, presented the cheques to representatives from the three charities this week, recognising the generosity of visitors who helped make the fundraising effort such a success.
Rob Fryer, Meridian Shopping Centre Manager, said: “Our Santa’s Grotto is always a highlight for local families, and despite a challenging year for many, we are delighted that our visitors’ generosity has enabled us to support these three fantastic local charities.”
