Children enjoy festive Santa's grotto at PAG UK

Date published: 30 December 2023


Father Christmas paid a very special visit to the Parents Against Grooming UK hub in Rochdale ahead of his busiest night of the year, hosting a festive grotto.

Santa handed out hundreds of presents to over 200 local children across two days, with dedicated hours set aside for disabled children and those with special educational needs.

William Howarth, founder of PAG UK, said: “Once again we had a massive response to our annual grotto. There were lots of smiles and gifts and even a few happy tears.

“It’s awesome that we can give back to the people who support us all year round.”
