Youngster George was in Doncaster Royal Infirmary suffering from pneumonia when the festive bunch on Harley Davidsons, with presents to distribute, roared up outside his ward.

Mum Katie explained: “George was having a pretty miserable time and missed his first nursery nativity and also his nursery Christmas party.

“Imagine me and my husband’s surprise when a boat load of Santas appeared outside the hospital on their bikes dressed in festive get ups! As my son wasn’t allowed out he couldn’t see this but I took a picture that made him smile!

“What made George smile even more was when he was brought a lovely gift from one of the nurses! My little boy is obsessed with trains and his present was a wooden train set so he was delighted!”

She continued: “I would like to thank the bikers so very much for giving George something to smile about on a drizzly, cold day confined to an hospital room. It is so very much appreciated and a fantastic gesture.”

The St Leger Chapter of bikers make their costumed gift run as an annual Christmas tradition.
