Always a hugely popular outing for west London families at this time of year, Father Christmas will be at WWT London Wetland Centre for two weekends in December. Children can visit the man in red and help the elves make festive decorations or small gifts to take home. Head over to the northern pine forest where Father Christmas will be ready to welcome families in his cosy grotto among the trees, and don't forget to leave time to stroll among the lakes, meadows and ponds of this wonderful 105-acre wildlife oasis in Barnes.
