2022 SsangYong Korando e-Motion review: electric SUV with a budget-friendly price, specification and range
Last Christmas, Santa’s sleigh was stopped in its tracks, after suffering a broken axle and major structural damage.
Following the loan of a replacement trailer, Santa was able to complete all his scheduled visits, and avoided disappointing many adults and children in Newton Stewart and the Machars.
Local businessman and proprietor of John D Owen butchers, Kenny Owen, and his wife Yolanda, heard about Santa’s plight, and offered their help.
They contacted John Irvine, Fundraising Officer for Round Table, and kindly agreed to donate the money raised in their local shop, from the carrier bag charge, to help get Santa mobile again.
Details of this year’s visits will be published on the Newton Stewart Round Table Facebook page.
