The festive party was a decision made by the people of Bentswood at the Summer Fun Day, when affordable housing provider, Affinity Sutton, offered to fund ‘something special,’ a spokeswoman said.

The unanimous vote was for the whole community to ‘get together’, ‘meet new neighbours’ and ‘have some fun’, the spokeswoman confirmed.

Nicky Dodds, from Affinity Sutton, said: “Bentswood is a very special place with a wonderful community so I’m really looking forward to telling Father Christmas what a good girl I’ve been all year!”

Bentswood residents can buy tickets at Saltworks Café, in America Lane and the party will kick off at 6pm.
