Bikers from the Sofia Riders sports club will go to the social services centre for children with disabilities in Roman today to give out the presents the children asked Father Christmas for. The gesture is part of a charity campaign which the bikers have been conducting for seven years. This year’s motto is “Small heroes”, because as part of the campaign, scholarships will be given to the children of doctors and teachers who lost their lives in the battle against the coronavirus pandemic. Yesterday the members of the club, dressed up as Father Christmas, drove through the central streets of Sofia. Today they will ride their motorcycles to the intersection of Patriarch Evtimii Boulevard and Vitosha Boulevard where they will decorate a Christmas tree.
