Hide AdLesley Onyett, on behalf of the Vale First Responders, said: “As well as the trees the windowsills had spectacular arrangements on them and the pillars were also decorated. The font had a beautifully knitted nativity scene and many of the decorations were handmade.”

The opening of the festival also included recognition for the Vale First Responders who have been honoured with The Queens Award for Voluntary Service.
