Leigh-on-sea Gold Geese Christmas Grotto

We are delighted to let you know that our Gold Geese Grotto at The Hatch, Old Leigh-on-sea, is open again for 2023. Tickets can be purchased on our website and cost £8 per child. Each ticket includes a visit with Santa and a Christmas gift.

When booking please select the date first and then take care to select the correct time slot.

It is one ticket per child so if bringing multiple children please make sure they have a ticket each.

If your child has any additional sensory needs then we have reserved some ‘quiet time’ spaces at the end of each day – just let us know in the notes if there is any extra way we can help (e.g. turning any Christmas lights off, turning music down etc.)

We are also looking for some volunteers to help with the grotto. If you would be interested in helping out and spreading some Christmas cheer then please send an email to fundraising@goldgeese.org with the title “Grotto Volunteer”.

Christmas can be a particularly tough time for families affected by childhood cancer, but with your support we are here for them.

All the money from your ticket goes towards our very special Christmas party for the families we help. The party includes a visit from Santa, festive activities and treats as well as a John Lewis vouchers to help every family cover the cost of Christmas. We are incredibly grateful to everyone that purchases a ticket and helps support our families through the Christmas season.
