Council Leader Kuldip Sahota who is also ward member for Malinslee, said; “With Christmas just around the corner we took the opportunity to work in partnership with local schools, shops, RMP events and West Mercia Police to spread some festive cheer.
“Christmas can be a very expensive time of year for families across the borough and working co-operatively we are able to hold events for local people to celebrate this holiday season together.
“I am really looking forward to helping to open the event and meet more local residents from across my ward.”
