He was the best Santa we've seen, and my daughter was so happy she'd finally met the "real Santa"
Light Switch on organiser
Could I just say how wonderful Jim is as Santa. Having seen many Santas over the years and big Jim with his lovely friendly manner is one of the best - ever!
Thank you Jim - as an ex Drama teacher I appreciate how difficult it is to dominate and fill a space, yet gentle enough to get the most shy child to speak to you.
You can do this and it's a gift. Thank you.
Jim you are a real star!!!
Home Visits
Thank you for the most magical Santa visit. After a hard year it was so heart warming to see my children smiling ear to ear to have Santa sat in our living room! Even my 10 year old who was starting to wonder if Santa is real now believes again. Thank you for taking the time to ask beforehand what they like and need to work towards, the visit felt so personal and made them feel really special.

By far the most realistic (and best dressed) santa we have seen. Our eldest was convinced it was the real santa. We thought you were fantastic and the experience was so magical. Thank you
Promotional Media
We hired Jim to work on our promotional shoot and video to promote our Christmas packages and it turned out to be a magical experience for everyone on the shoot. Jim was super professional, happy to go with the flow and the most lovely, friendly person. We were all convinced that he is the really real Santa and everyone was starstruck. I will without a doubt be hiring Jim Kringle again for our next shoot
