Santa's float will visit Queensway and Dene Drive tonight, Foxfield Lane and the Fairways area tomorrow, the Beeston Drive area on Friday, Winsford town centre on Saturday, Station Road, Rookery Rise and the Nunhouse area on Monday, Wharton Road and the Wharton Park area on Tuesday, Knights Grange area next Wednesday and anywhere they have missed on the following evening.
