While the sleigh will be cruising majestically down the streets in the Larbert area over the coming weeks, there will be no collections of cash on those nights as COVID-19 restrictions prevent this.

Instead the Round Table has set up a Just Giving page to allow people to still make donations to the great causes the organisation supports. It has set a target of £10,000 for this year.

A Larbert Round Table spokesman said: “We are delighted to be able to bring our Santa float to a street near you – albeit with adaptions in line with government guidelines. It has been an incredibly tough year and we recognise there may be more in need this year than ever before.
