Take a place in Santa’s sleigh with Emmaus Sheffield
You don’t have to visit Lapland or even wait to Christmas Eve to get a glimpse of Santa’s sleigh…you could just pop down to city homelessness charity Emmaus Sheffield.
The charity’s popular Cadman Street second hand superstore is now in full festive mode, with an extensive range of Christmas gifts and accessories, including Scandi-style hand crafted decorations.
And to add a special extra family festive flavour, there’s also a special Santa’s sleigh available for Christmas selfies - with a free gift for every child who takes a seat for a photo.
“We aim to make our Christmas offer something that really does appeal to the whole family,” said the charity’s Marketing and Development Manager Charley Fedorenko.
“Santa is too busy getting ready for Christmas Eve to put in a personal visit but he has already delivered a sackful of goodies so every young visitor enjoys a little extra festive fun.
Emmaus Sheffield is a working community with quality, self-contained accommodation, training facilities and a workspace for previously homeless men and women aged 18 years and over.
It aims through its Social Enterprise programme to provide meaningful work and enable the people it supports – known as companions - to eventually become self-supporting once more.
One of the charity’s main fundraising schemes is its extremely popular second hand store, which is open daily from 10am to 4pm.
