WERT - Windsor & Eton Round Table

Santa Sleigh

Apologies, but Santa needs a rest and will not be flying around the streets of Windsor & Eton in 2017.

We hope to be back in 2018 in combination with Windsor Lions!

Most years, we accompany Santa around local streets on Monday and Friday evenings and in Peascod Street on Saturdays in December, visiting families & children and playing Christmas carols. Goodwill, Christmas cheer and lollipops are distributed freely and residents give generously to help our local charities.

Santa was out in the streets of Windsor & Eton on the following occasions in 2016

*Rotary Club/Windsor Mencap Collection

Please note that we may have to adjust these dates due to adverse weather conditions or lack of elves, but we will try our best to stick to them!

Our elves are the finest, selected from Windsor & Eton Round Table, 41 Club and Rotary Club, plus their families.

Our major charitable activity is providing a Christmas shopping night for over 140 local OAPs, collecting them from their homes and returning them later. We have also supported a number of local charities including Windsor Mencap, Sportsable, (formerly WAMDSAD) (www.wamdsad.co.uk), Thames Hospicecare and Thames Valley Adventure Playground (www.tvap.net) and sometimes support National Round Table charities.

In December 2015, we collected a total of £4,200 for local charities. This constituted a record!

We were assisted by collectors from Windsor & Eton 41 Club, Windsor Rotary and the Royal Harmonics. Together we accompanied Santa on 8 occasions, with an average of 7 people turning out each night.
