Elf in a Tutu Makes Christmas Magic for Pippy's Tombola, Late Night Christmas Shopping Event, Oakham, Rutland.

A very special elf in a tutu has been busy making Christmas magic this morning, creating a series of festive chocolate bags to be used as prizes for Pippy's Tombola at the Oakham Late Night Shopping Event on Monday, December 11.


The dedicated elf, has been working tirelessly to fill each bag with a selection of delicious chocolates, all donated by Martin's mum Janet and sister Wendee. The elf's efforts are all in aid of The Rutland Food Bank, which provides emergency food and support to those in need across the county.

"I'm so excited to be helping Pippy Woodley with her Tombola and raise funds for such an important cause," the elf said. "I love making people happy, and I know that these chocolates will bring smiles to everyone's faces."


Pippy Woodley the organiser of the Tombola, is thrilled with the elf's contributions and thanks him for their generosity. "I'm so grateful to the elf for their hard work and dedication," Pippy said. "Their chocolate bags are absolutely delicious and I know they'll be a big hit at the Tombola."


Pippy Woodley's Tombola will be taking place at Morrison Daily/Post Office on High Street Oakham, and all proceeds will go directly to The Rutland Food Bank. Pippy would like to thank everyone who has donated prizes for her stall, and encourages everyone to come along and support this worthy cause.

The Oakham Late Night Shopping Event is set to be a festive feast for all the senses, with a variety of stalls, music, and entertainment taking place throughout the town centre. The event is a great opportunity to do your Christmas shopping while supporting local businesses and community groups.

So come on down to Oakham on Monday, December 11 and join in the fun! With the elf's chocolate bags and Pippy's Tombola, Christmas magic is guaranteed!

Elf was very pleased he had Martin Clubcard, Tesco is not selling tubs of chocolates for less than £4 with Clubcard.
