A DROITWICH church has been lit up with an array of colourful Christmas trees for an annual fundraising festival.

On Saturday St Andrew's Church became filled with a riot of colourful fairy lights, as the popular Christmas Tree Festival got underway.

Following on from its inaugural festival last year, a total of 21 trees representing a range of Droitwich charities and groups have gone on display for the 2015 festival.

Val Hawley, festival organiser, said: "It truly gets everyone in the Christmas mood and I hope people will come to see the trees when they are passing by."

Eunice Williams, of the Kingfield Centre which has a tree in the church, said: “I really enjoyed the Christmas trees last year and I was so pleased when the Challengers group was able to bring their decorated tree along and be part of the celebrations."

The trees will remain on display in the weeks running up to Christmas for the Droitwich community to enjoy.

St Andrew's Church is in St Andrew's Street. For more details visit droitwichparish.org.uk
