FESTIVE magic is ensuring that the wish lists of children in parts of the Amman and Swansea valleys reach the North Pole in time for Christmas.

Letters posted at the special post-boxes which are being placed at several venues throughout Neath Port Talbot will get a reply from Santa.

Neath Port Talbot Council leader Ali Thomas said: “All the boys and girls of Neath Port Talbot will be able to write to him with their Christmas wish lists and to let him know whether or not they’ve been naughty or nice this year.”

Santa’s post-boxes will be based at Pontardawe Arts Centre and Tesco Pontardawe until Saturday, December 5.

Alternatively letters to Santa can be posted to Special Events, Library HQ, Reginald Street, Velindre, Port Talbot, SA13 1YY.
