Big tree festival for church

ST PAUL’S Parish church in Skelmersdale holds its Christmas Tree Festival this weekend.

The event follows the success of the inaugural festival last year and takes place on Saturday and Sunday, December 9 and 10.

The Church Council decided that this year admission to the Christmas Tree Festival is by either a food or monetary donation on the door, with all proceeds going to the local food bank.

Refreshments will also be available.

Local schools and businesses have again agreed to decorate trees to what is planned to be a wonderful community event.
