Santa Parade in Derbyshire village needs a merry bunch of elves

Organisers of a festive event in a north Derbyshire village are looking for big-hearted volunteers to take on the role of elves.

Santa will be parading through the streets of Hollingwood on December 20, from 5.30pm, but needs elves to accompany him.

Sharon Morrell from the Hollingwood Residents Association has reached out to the community via the Hollingwood Residents page on Facebook, stating: “If you have a spare hour or so and would like to join the parade as an Elf, please do get in touch for more details. We would love to see adults and children, the more Elves the merrier.”

There will be a bucket collection for Ashgate Hospice. The Santa Parade will make its way to Hollingwood Community Room where there will be carols sung by the Choir@theRoyal.

This year marks the sixth Santa Parade in the village.
