Hi,

Xmas 2025 is over and now I'm starting to look at what we can do for our villages (Inverkip/Wemyss Bay) for next Xmas.

I observed that our neighbouring towns all had the luxury of a Santa Sleigh travelling around visiting all the streets saying hi to the kids but we had nothing. Its been an idea of mine for a number of years for our lovely villages to make this happen for the kids!

Well now we have an opportunity!!

Myself and the Inverkip resident Santa (if you know, you know) have the drive and help from Kip Marina and local people to build our own Santa Sleigh. If we manage this then by this Christmas we will be driving around all our own streets and avenue's.

To achieve this we need to raise money for materials with help from all our friends out there. I'm proposing to set up a Go Fund page for donations that would allow us to make this happen.

Before I do this, I would like to confirm that this is acceptable to ask the communities of Inverkip and Wemyss Bay. Let me know what you think

Thanks all,

Andy & Santa
