A WINTER wonderland filled with festive gifts and Santa’s grotto will take place at a Bromsgrove garden centre for charity.

Little Heath Garden Centre, in Littleheath Lane, is holding the grotto event every weekend plus December 19-23 from 11am to 3pm and on Christmas Eve from 11am to 1pm.

The event is free, although donations from the grotto will go to Greenfingers – a charity that creates gardens for children’s hospices – and Primrose Hospice based in Bromsgrove.

Little Heath Garden Centre Manager Pete Brooks said: "We want to make sure every visit to our centre is a magical experience for the whole family."

Every child who visits Santa receives a sticker set and a certificate for those who have been good all year, while souvenir photography can also be purchased.

A free Elf Hunt also takes place until December 18, which includes a lucky draw prize.
