Lancashire residents invited to meet Santa at Christmas event in Leyland
Santa Claus is coming to a Lancashire town as two housebuilders are hosting a Christmas event for the local community on Saturday November 14.
Barratt and David Wilson Homes are inviting people to the Centurion Village development in Leyland, offering the chance to meet Father Christmas and enjoy a range of festivities.
Between 10am and 2:30pm, the five-star housebuilders are welcoming people to their sales centres and show homes, located on Longmeanygate in Leyland.
Those attending early will be in with a chance to receive a gift from Santa and there will be two wreath making demonstrations from Leafy Couture in the show homes, alongside festive wraps and drinks.
Barratt and David Wilson Homes have sponsored the upcoming Leyland Christmas Lights Switch-On (28th November) and the housebuilders are running a prize draw for four lucky winners to receive VIP wristbands to the event.
A toy collection is also being held on the day for The Base in Leyland – a branch of Key that offers support for those aged four to 18 – so attendees are encouraged to donate any new toys or those in good condition to the collection for a fantastic cause.
Alan Watt, Sales Director at Barratt Homes Manchester, said: “It’s time to start thinking about Christmas and we’re really looking forward to hosting this event at Centurion Village on Saturday 14th November, giving local families the chance to meet Father Christmas and enjoy a range of seasonal activities.”
Jennifer Burns, Sales Director at David Wilson Homes North West, said: “We encourage anyone looking to kickstart the Christmas season to attend our event at Centurion Village. Whether you’d like your children to meet Santa, are keen to know how to make a wreath or simply want to enjoy some festive food, we can’t wait to welcome you to our developments.”
