Two Belle Vale charities, Active Community Enterprise (ACE) and St Cyril’s Children & Youth Project (SCCYP) , have teamed up to bring festive activities and Father Christmas to their community this December.
For many people in Belle Vale and the surrounding areas, the ACE Santa sleigh-ride signals the start of the festive season. It brings a lot of joy to the children’s faces, when they come out of the house and see the man himself in their street.
This year’s festivities will be a little different due to the Covid-19 restrictions but rest-assured that Santa will still be making his rounds. ACE, a charity that supports adults with learning difficulties, has teamed up with SCCYP, an initiative that provides year-round activities for children aged 6+ in the local area. Between them, the organisations plan to offer a unique after school and holiday play scheme, with free activities for all children aged 6+. SCCYP has also been delivering essential food parcels to the most vulnerable, isolating and struggling families in the community.

Please give a warm welcome to Santa and his elves
