Santa has been out and about collecting children’s letters and raising some money for charity.

With the help of Island butcher Steve O’Meara and some members of the Isle of Sheppey Rotary Club, Santa visited houses all around Sheerness last week.

He gave out sweets to the children and managed to raise more than £650 for local rotary charities.

Santa went round the houses accompanied by his friends at the rotary, and he even bought his sleigh along with a Christmas tree.

Steve said “We had a fantastic time, it went really well.

“To see the little kids faces was magical, and some of them were waiting out in the street to see Father Christmas.

“The generosity of people was fantastic.”
