As Christmas approaches, Balsall Common Lions are delighted to share the news that Santa will once
again be visiting every home in Balsall Common and the surrounding area. Although we won’t catch
him on Christmas Eve while we’re fast asleep, this is our chance to see him a little earlier — and
celebrate the joy he brings to our community.
When Santa arrives on your street, we hope you’ll step outside, give him a wave, or greet him from
your window. Every smile, every cheer, and every moment shared helps spread much-needed
Christmas goodwill. Thanks to your kindness last year, we raised over £6,000 for local, national, and
international causes — a wonderful reminder of the generosity that makes our community so
special.
Santa’s Run begins Saturday 13th December and continues most evenings until Tuesday 23rd
December. You can also find Santa and his helpers in the village centre on Saturday 20th December,
and outside the Co-op on Christmas Eve, just before he sets off on his biggest night of the year.
This festive tradition is a chance to come together, support one another, and enjoy a little seasonal
magic.
For a magical evening:
 Check our Facebook Page each night for Santa’s tracker
 Listen out for Santa’s music
 Bring children to the pavement edge and stay safely back
 Wave, smile, and take photos!
 Say hello to Santa’s helpers too
Thank you for your continued support.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas from all at Balsall Common Lions.
