The Face Behind the Fuzz

I’m a proud dad of one, a full-time working father… and every Christmas, I temporarily turn into the Granch (don’t worry, my heart has grown).

This all started on a work Christmas trip to Lincoln when I dressed as the Granch just for fun. Turns out, I couldn’t go five steps without being stopped for photos — and I was even asked to hop on video chats with children who absolutely love Mr Granch. That’s when I realised the Granch might be grumpy, but he brings a whole lot of joy.

I decided to put my Granch costume to good use by doing house visits to help raise money for my son’s football team. I don’t do this for profit — I only cover my expenses. Any money raised goes straight back to supporting my son and his team (very un-Granchy, I know).

Thanks to the amazing support, we’ve already been able to fund the team’s 2025 training kits. So while the Grinck may steal Christmas… this one gives it back — with a few laughs, photos, and maybe a little mischief along the way.
