SANTA needs help as the "biggest Christmas event in the region" is looking for elves.

Winter Glow is set to return to the Three Counties Showground in Malvern this year, but it needs to recruit some elves for Santa’s Grotto.

Successful elf recruits will play a vital role in spreading festive magic and assisting families across the three counties as they meet Santa Claus himself at the event.

Winter Glow is an annual event in Malvern that helps families get festive with ice skating, light trails, and personalised experiences between November and December.

However, applicants must be enthusiastic, good with children, and, most importantly, have exceptional levels of Christmas spirit.

Head Elf, Jingle, said: “Our merry elves play an essential role in spreading Christmas cheer across Worcestershire and helping Santa prepare for his busiest night of the year!

"We're looking for enthusiastic, talented individuals to join our team and can't wait to welcome them on board for a truly magical festive season.”

Full “elf training” and traditional uniforms inspired by those worn at Santa’s North Pole HQ will be provided.

Budding elves can register their interest via the Winter Glow website.

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to an online audition with Head Elf, Jingle.
