Families are being invited to take a boat trip through Dudley Caverns and meet Santa in his underground grotto.

Children are also being asked to send cards to Father Christmas so they can be displayed inside the grotto.

Dudley Canal Trust is organising the boat trips, which will take place on the weekends between December 7 and 21.

The trips last an hour and go through the caverns underneath Castle Hill.

Visitors are also given a hot drink and a mince pie.

Nick Morris, chief executive at the canal trust, said: "We're hoping to fill Santa's underground home with Christmas cards from local children.

"Looking out for the card you've sent will be just one of many magical experiences visitors get when they come and see Santa with us."

Cards should be posted to Dudley Canal Trust Trips Ltd, 501 Birmingham New Road, Dudley. DY1 4SB
