150 children queue to see Santa!

More than 150 children queued to see Santa at a Christmas fair held in Beacon Heath over the weekend.

It was worth the wait as they entered Santa’s Winter Wonderland of magical lights and snow at the Beacon Heath Children’s Centre, while next door in The Beacon Centre there were lots of Christmas stalls, carols by the Hospiscare Choir and a café.

Stalls included Devon Refugee Support, the Labour Party cake stall, Hospiscare, Traid Craft, Willowbrook School and the Campaign for Eastern Fields.

This was the first public event to be held at The Beacon, new community centre, and organisers were delighted to see hundreds of local people attending.
