Hard hat and high-vis-wearing elves have visited building sites in Northamptonshire to remind children to stay on Santa’s ‘nice list’ by keeping clear of construction sites at all times.
Amer Alkhalil, managing director at Barratt and David Wilson Homes Northampton, said: “Children, like elves, can be curious and adventurous, and turn up in the most unlikely places, especially when schools are closed. However, building sites can be dangerous places for little people.
“Developers like ourselves are building more new homes at sites all over the country, but until they are completed these places are very hazardous for young children.
