POOLE’S Dolphin Centre has unveiled new decorations for Christmas.

The centre has taken on a ‘winter enchantment’ theme and decorations include a 6m stag with branch antlers known as the ‘King of the Forest’, which can be found in the lower mall.

Visitors can also find junior deer and adult female deer decorations outside the bus station. While in Falkland Square there’s a 20ft real Christmas tree.

John Grinnell, centre manager at the Dolphin Shopping Centre, said: “We’re in awe of our new decorations and are so happy with the feedback we’ve already received from shoppers. There’s nothing more magical than snowfall, where everything is covered in white and glistens in the lights. We worked closely with MK Illumination to try to capture winter enchantment and bring this to life in the centre.”

Darren Boldy, head of sales at MK Illumination, said: “Seeing the reaction of customers at the shopping centre has been really rewarding – the giant stag is going to be a talking point for some time to come!”
