The Well Christmas Lunch at Newington Village Hall

Click photos to enlarge.

I attended The Well Christmas Lunch at Newington Village Hall on Sunday the 8th of December where a large number of guests sat down to a lovely Christmas meal.

Board games were provided for the children to keep them occupied while Reverend Julian Staniforth led Carol singing after the meal.

A great time was had by all.

Thank you
