The National Coal Mining Museum for England (NCMME) has launched a campaign that will allow children from Yorkshire to have a unique Christmas experience and visit Santa’s underground grotto.

The NCMME is calling out to businesses and individuals to support this campaign and help bring festive joy to struggling local families during the cost-of-living crisis.

During these economic times, NCMME is urging local businesses and anyone who would like to get involved to support its Gift A Child a Festive Experience campaign.

With a £50 donation, it will give a child a meeting with Santa in his underground grotto, which without this donation wouldn’t be possible.

It’s not just about giving a present, it’s about offering an experience that they will treasure forever and includes:

• Transport to and from the museum, so that even the most isolated families can take part.
• A visit to Santa in his underground grotto.
• A drink, snack, and lunch.
• A photo with Santa.
• A festive craft-making activity.
• Support NCMME’s family & educational activities.

Lynn Dunning, Chief Executive Officer at the National Coal Mining Museum said: “We are urging people to come together and show local children that no matter what the struggles, the spirit of Christmas will always shine through. For these children, it’s a chance to for them to immerse themselves in the magic of Christmas. The National Coal Mining Museum is stepping up to offer these children an experience they wouldn’t otherwise have – but we can’t do it alone. So as a part of the Wakefield community, let’s share in the joy of giving by gifting a child a truly memorable Festive Experience to see Santa Underground. They’ll receive a gift, enjoy a meal, plus storytelling and craft activities to make this year unforgettable.”
