So, who is Father Christmas?

defaultLaura Webb, from Kingston Vale, was tragically killed by one of the suicide bombers on 7th July 2005.

Her brother, Robert, has written a booklet in her memory called "So, who is Father Christmas?".

He has researched the history of this iconic figure, and I'm very pleased to learrn that he wasn't invented by Coca Cola, as has been rather dubiously claimed.

The booklet costs £3 and the proceeds will go towards building a children's play area at St John the Baptist's Church, Kingston Vale. Visit the church in Robin Hood Lane or email them to get a copy.
