Also in attendance was mayor Alistair McPherson, representing the town council, and Richard Goddard, representing the Ashenground Community Centre.

A choir from St Wilfred’s School sang two carols and Katy Elliott and Oliver Netherway of the Perrymount Players performed a telling of the Christmas story from Joseph’s and Mary’s perspective.

The whole congregation joined in to sing traditional Christmas carols, and after the service, mince pies and mulled wine were served in the community centre.
