Santa

The fire station on Hogg Lane, Grays puts on events during festive season, they also do one events during school holidays, Easter etc.

Last year we went and it was really fun. You do like a little quiz and can get in the fire truck and even hose down the "fire". It was fun.

You pay £5 to see santa and you get 2 gifts after. And you are allowed to take a picture.

Just check their website. You will need to send them an email to book your place, just indicate the time you will come. I don't think they've released the date for the Christmas event as of yet.

The events are free but there things that they sell such as trucks etc. They take card payment only I believe.

We are planning to go again this year. It was fun for my son.

Thank you. That's really helpful.

All depending where you are, Thurrock rotary club have a Santa that comes around on his sleigh, you can take your little one outside to see Santa, you’ll know it’s them as they have lights and play Christmas music
