The weekend is set to offer festive food tastings, Christmas choir and a visit from Santa Claus, who will be handing out Christmas presents from 11am to 3pm on both days.

All funds raised by the festive activities will be going to Chailey Heritage School, which helps children with complex learning disabilities.

Jason Payne, garden centre manager, said: “Christmas is an amazing time, especially for our younger visitors, and as big kids ourselves we’ve had great fun building our best Christmas experience ever.
