Elle Morris, 10 wishes, going to Santaland

Young Nantwich cystic fibrosis sufferer Elle Morris will be special guest at the Wingate Centre’s Santaland.

Nine-year-old Elle, who needs a double lung transplant, will be collected by Nantwich Cycling Group on their Christmas Ride.

And they will end at the Wrenbury-based Wingate Centre on December 5 where youngsters from around the area are being invited to a Santa’s Grotto.

At least 30 riders will accompany Stapeley Broad Lane pupil Elle.

They are hoping to help the youngster achieve her 10 wishes before her 10th birthday.

Those wishes included a charity bike ride for Cystic Fibrosis.

So the cyclists will be serving up another surprise for Elle and her sister Cara – by delivering two new bicycles, especially adapted by Swinnerton Cycles.

“We are so pleased to join in with making some of Elle’s wishes come true, The Wingate Centre is all about brightening children’s lives,” said centre manager Rona Moroney.

The Wingate Centre has also offered Elle a Sleepover and Birthday party at the centre – two other wishes on her list.

Nantwich Cycling Group will also be dropping off a sack of soft toys to be donated to Wingate holiday guests in 2016.

The independent charity relies on voluntary contributions to continue its work and this year alone needs to find £300,000 to keep its services running.

The Wingate Centre is inviting children to visit Santa in Santaland from 9am–12pm on Saturday December 5.

Grown ups can also enjoy hot breakfast rolls, Christmas crafts and gifts and coffee and mince pies.

A visit to Santa’s Grotto will cost £3 including a gift and all proceeds will go towards funds for the charity to provide holidays and sporting activities for children with disabilities.
