Merseyway shopping centre is hosting a range of Christmas activities this festive season.

The festive huts - a miniature Christmas market set up in Merseyway's outdoor area - are back, and they'll also be open for late-night shopping until 7pm on the 19th, 20th, and 23rd December.

Further still, Merseyway is introducing the 'Christmas Express Depot' - a new activity for youngsters to help get them in the Christmas spirit. It invites children to embark on a 'magical' adventure, helping to deliver Santa's mail in festive post boxes around the town centre.

If children manage to deliver all the letters, they'll get a chance to meet Santa himself, who is taking time out of his busy schedule to call at the Merseyway. They'll also get a free present!

The Christmas Express Depot is free, and will be running across three weekends in December from 7th-8th, 14th–15th, and 21st–22nd, from 11am to 2pm on each day.

And, what's more, The Giving Tree scheme returns to the town centre, where locals can help spread joy this Christmas by buying presents for less fortunate children.

Victoria Nichol, Centre Manager of Merseyway said "Merseyway has always been at the heart of the Stockport community, and we're thrilled to spread festive cheer and offer free, memorable experiences for families over the festive season.

"Whether it's sharing joy through the Giving Tree or diving into the wonder of the Christmas Express Depot, we invite everyone to join us in making this a Christmas to remember."
