Frosts Garden Centre, Willington - Santa's Grotto SEN Sessions

To help make our Grotto experience as accessible as possible to any families who may require any additional support, we are offering exclusive SEN sessions. These sessions will be the same unique Grotto experience you would expect from Frosts, with some small adaptations to welcome those with any additional needs. This includes smaller groups of people, reduced lighting and sound, and less display furniture making it easily accessible for all.
