Utilita Energy Hub (located on King William Street at The Mall Blackburn - opposite McDonalds) is set to become a free Santa's grotto. Utilita, a Smart PAYG energy supplier, will transform it's high street hub into a Christmas grotto on Saturday 7th December.
Children attending the free event will receive a gift and have a family photo opportunity. Families are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item for local food banks. Gifts will be aimed at children up to the age of 10 but everyone is welcome to meet and take a photo with Santa. There will be one gift per child, while stocks last.
Uwais Patel, manager at the Blackburn Hub, said: "We’re looking forward to welcoming families and children to our Energy Hub on December 7. Excited tots will get an opportunity to take photos with Santa Claus and receive a free gift between 11.30am and 3pm. Visiting adults will be offered a cup of tea as well as free energy advice to help make their energy spend go further this winter."
