Malvern Link residents celebrated their 10th annual Christmas event with two unique Christmas trees.

The event featured a tree created by Karen Matthews of The Wool Shack and another by artist Phil Ironside.

Father Christmas made an appearance, led by a procession of children, before Andrew Easton of BBC Hereford and Worcester switched on the Christmas tree lights.

St Matthias choir, including a young soloist, sang carols, and musicians Random Numbers and String Box performed.

Attendees also had the chance to meet Peeler the Police Dog.

The event raised money for Worcestershire Animal Rescue Shelter and Community Action.

County Councillor Karen Hanks encouraged visitors to explore the area, saying: "Please do visit Malvern Link to see our two unique Christmas trees, with great shops, restaurants and services just a few steps away from the free parking at Victoria Park.

"You will be made very welcome by Link’s fantastic and generous community of traders, and importantly, do shop locally this Christmas."
