Over 1,000 Santas descend on central London<br /><br />Around 1,200 cycling Santas descended on central London on Saturday, December 14, adding a splash of color to the capital as part of a fundraising event to support a children’s charity.<br /><br />Onlookers gazed on in amazement as the army of Santas cycled down Pall Mall towards Buckingham Palace. Dressed in red Santa suits, some as elves with faces painted green, they toured the capital to collect money.<br /><br />The event marked the 10th edition of annual Santa cruise, set up by BMX cycling enthusiast Stephane Wright, who got the idea for the event after receiving support from the Echo charity after his son was hospitalized after suffering a heart attack aged only six months.<br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br />Sign up to our newsletters: https://tmt.ph/newsletters<br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /> <br />#themanilatimes<br />#worldnews<br />#christmas<br />#london
