South Parkway is having a charity Elf Day to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society – https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/elfday/what-is-elf-day.
Their fundraising pack from the Society contained decorations and games, so they’re having afternoon tea in each property with activities for the people who live there throughout the day. They also have two raffle-type games: Name of the Elf and Guess the number of gingerbread men.
Of course, no-one can visit them at South Parkway due to Covid so they’d like us all to support them by dressing up – wherever we are – on the day.
They have set up a Just Giving page for any donations at:
