The mulled wine was flowing, the Christmas songs were being belted out, and Santa was kept extremely busy at this year’s Peel Christmas Fair. Local residents enjoyed wonderful live entertainment from singer Suzanne David, with her festive repertoire. The kids were kept busy with tons of crafts and activities, and there were some fantastic raffle prizes donated by local businesses.

Thanks to all the amazing Peel staff and volunteers who made the event such a success, and thank you to all of you who came along and had a great afternoon!

You can see more photos from the day in this month’s Peel newsletter and on The Peel’s Instagram.
