Atkinsons department store on The Moor is getting in the festive spirit with two Christmas crooners sure to be a hit with families across Sheffield.

Eccy and Totsy, the singing reindeers, are located on the first floor of the well-established family department store, near the escalators. These special reindeer have taken a break from their busy training schedule at the North Pole to bring festive cheer throughout the day in the run up to Christmas.

James from Atkinsons said: “Eccy and Totsy have come a long way to sing everyone’s favourite Christmas songs, and to serenade our customers here at Atkinsons on The Moor. We hope all the family will have a great time when they visit, and we’re also part of the Sheffield Christmas trail which is a great thing to do with the kids.

“There’s lots more to do when you visit; you can get your Christmas shopping done, visit the reindeer, and even enjoy an early Christmas dinner in the Atkinsons Restaurant. As a family-run department store Christmas is a special time of year for us and we want to share that with our wonderful colleagues and customers.”
