Santas to rake in sackfulls of joy

Santas gear up for the grotto's launch

Father Christmas made an early visit to The Argus offices to train his helpers for the launch of The Argus Appeal's Christmas Grotto.

Stand-in Santas lined up for inspection outside Argus House in Hollingbury, Brighton, as the real Father Christmas put them through their paces for the opening of the grotto at Churchill Square Shopping Centre on November 24.

Elsa Gillio, co-ordinator of The Argus Appeal, said: "We only employ the best Santas for our grotto and we make sure they are all trained up ready for the big launch.

"Every penny made from the grotto this Christmas will be going straight back into the community through The Argus Appeal."

This year The Argus Appeal is celebrating its 50th anniversary, raising money for good causes throughout Sussex.

Running costs of the charity are paid for by The Argus.
