This is the third year that the group of about 15 people have built a sleigh to travel with Santa around the villages of Billingborough, Pointon, Threekingham, Osbournby, Horbling and Folkingham dressed in elf outfits.

This year, they collected £2,085 for Ovacome, an ovarian cancer charity.

In previous years, they have raised money for Motor Neurone disease and brain tumour research.

Sweets were donated by Alan W Page & Co (Seeds) and Tesco. Debbie Chessum from the group said: “We thank all those who came out to support us.”
