Be Santa's Helper in Colchester

We've the chance for ten lucky children to help unveil the Christmas window at Williams and Griffin in Colchester on Sunday 17th November!

You know Christmas is really on it's way when Father Christmas arrives at the Williams and Griffin in the High Street, Colchester to unwrap their magical animated Christmas window.

This year's theme is still a big secret and it’s the first Christmas event in Colchester town centre - so you don’t want to miss it! 

Be outside the front of Williams & Griffin at 12noon on Sunday 17th November for the unveiling and switch on and there may even be snow!

And here's more exciting news...

We all know Father Christmas and the Elves usually travel by Sleigh but they'll be swapping the Sleigh for a different mode of transport, and we're giving ten lucky children the chance to arrive by bus with Father Christmas himself and his Elf for the last stage of the journey to the store in the Christmas procession.

Then they'll get to see the unveiling of the magical animated window at 12 noon with Mum or Dad and will receive an early Christmas present from the big man himself, as long as they've been good that is! Plus there's lots of treats in-store for the winners – as they can get their faces painted and will receive a Colchester Zoo day pass.

So for your chance to win a place, simply answer our Christmas question below, but hurry as entry closes on Sunday 10th November. This personal meet with Father Christmas is something any child will remember for years to come, so enter now!

And if you were there for last year's unveiling, take at look at our photos below and see if you spot yourself and your family.
