Christmas came early to Wrexham this weekend when a team of Santa Claus’s visited Wrexham to deliver presents to sick children.

Over 50 Father Christmas’ rolled into Wrexham Town Centre yesterday, with a team of motorcyclists taking part in a Santa Toy Run for the Children’s ward at the Wrexham Maelor Hospital and Hope House Children’s Hospice Oswestry.

The Santa’s were delivering gifts and money that had been donated to both the children’s ward and the Hospice.

Motorcyclists arrived at the Wrexham Motorcycle Centre in Rhosrobin at 9am yesterday morning, before heading off to the Wrexham Maelor Hospital and Oswestry to deliver their gifts.

The Santa’s were then made their way back to Wrexham for 2pm, where they were met with a positive response from the public. Becki Davies sent Wrexham.com this photo of the motorcyclists waiting at the traffic lights at the B&Q roundabout.

Katie Rippon tweeted to say: “Everyone of them beeped at my nephew on their motorbikes, he was made up!”

A video uploaded to YouTube by Chris Jones shows the motorcylcists leave the Wrexham Motorcycle Centre in Rhosrobin and head off on their journey early yesterday morning.

Thanks to Steve Denny for tweeting us the above photo of all the Santa’s who took part in yesterday’s event!
