He said: “We were very gratified by the many comments on the displays and of the friendliness of the welcome, the quality of the refreshments provided over the weekend within our lovely church.

“We feel that holding such events in Wigtoft enhances what village life should be about. The support we have from residents of other local villages proves it is inclusive and encompassing.”
