Volunteering at The Children's Trust

Santa's Grotto at The Children's Trust

Join our team of festive volunteers and help make Christmas magical for children and young people with brain injury and neurodisability. 

About the Event: 

Our Christmas event for the season, Santa's Grotto at The Children's Trust, will be held in the beautiful grounds of our national specialist centre at Tadworth Court in Surrey, kicking off the festive season in style. Packed with seasonal activities, including a special visit to Santa in his magical grotto to share all your winter wishes, it's a wonderful afternoon for the whole family. 

This joyful celebration is guaranteed to get you into the festive spirit, while raising vital funds to support the children and young people we work with as they begin their rehabilitation and education journeys. 

What's Involved: 

We are looking for volunteers to support a variety of roles throughout this magical event, including catering, marshalling, manning stalls, and assisting with ticket sales and registration at the front gate.

We are also looking to fill some special roles: Mrs Claus and Santa's Elves to help create the magic at our Santa's Grotto at The Children's Trust.   

What we need from you:

A positive, friendly attitude with plenty of enthusiasm. Someone who enjoys working as part of a team, is committed, hands-on, and ready to embrace the festive spirit. 

When: Saturday 28 November 2026; 11am - 7pm
