A CHRISTMAS celebration saw Olaf, Anna and Elsa join families in Reading Minster last Friday.

PACT (Parents and Children Together) held the annual event to mark the season and raise funds for its work.

The event saw a mixture of popular carols and seasonal songs and readings performed by, among others, Rock Choir Reading, Universal Voices, Readiophonics and service users of Alana House.

They included Deck The Halls, Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree, The Holly and The Ivy, and The Twelve Days of Christmas.

A seasonal thought was given by the Revd Judith Sumner, part of the ministry team at Reading Minster.

Seasonal refreshments were served afterwards.
