EXCITED children will have the chance to see Father Christmas when his sleigh visits a village on the outskirts of Worcester.

Santa's sleigh will be travelling around Rushwick on Friday, December 22.

Father Christmas and his elves will be handing out sweets during his journey which starts at 5.30pm.

The visit has been organised by Justin Poolton and has been supported by villagers in Whittington who have allowed the team to use their sleigh.

There will be a collection for Worcester Wheels and St Richard's Hospice during Father Christmas's visit.
