Tea, coffee and homemade cakes were available throughout the weekend, with preserves and cards also on sale.

A raffle was held with festive prizes, and the weekend concluded with a Christmas Tree and Toy Service - gathering toys to donate to women's refuges.

Members of the parochial church council (PCC), who organised the event, thanked the groups and individuals who made a "splendid" effort in presenting the trees, and all those who helped run the festival.
