"Customers enjoyed a festive atmosphere as they sang along with the Group of singers from West St. Independant Methodist Church, whilst enjoying the selective menu from our kitchen and also mince pies and hot cocoa or mulled wine on the house.

"It gives us a real buzz to know that we have raised funds for a charity each year but especially this year with it being so close to our hearts as West Street Independent Methodist Church is a place we grew up from my mum as a child to me and my siblings and now my children; it’s a safe haven.

"We hope you can all join us again next year as we endeavour to raise money for our chosen charities."

Victoria's mum Karen is known for her seasonal decorations and stalls, with her latest set up selling Christmas trimmings and gifts.
