Story

Seasons greetings! 🎅🏻🎄

Our names are Chris and Aaron Bailey. We're two brothers from Ipswich looking to spread some Christmas cheer!

Our aim is to visit families with children who, due to health reasons, sensory needs or other conditions, may not be able to go to visit Santa. The visit consists of a doorstep meeting and chat with Santa and his elf, as well as a small present. We don’t charge for this service but do accept donations from anybody who would like to support us, with all donations going to Ipswich hospital.

We began supporting the hospital after seeing the staff in the maternity ward support us and our loved ones.

This will be Chris’ seventh year as Santa and our third year doing doorstep visits. Last year we raised over £1100 for Ipswich hospital by visiting over 100 children across Ipswich and surrounding areas who otherwise may not have gotten to see Santa!

The past year has been very exciting for Good Cause Santa Claus as we’ve also been featured in the Ipswich Star, on Suffolk Sounds Radio and BBC Radio Suffolk! We’ve also been nominated for a BBC Make A Difference volunteering award!
