THE Woodlarks Centre in Lodge Hill Road, Farnham, echoed to roars of applause and cheers, after performing this year’s Christmas nativity, A Miracle in Town, an upbeat version of the traditional festive tale from Out of the Ark Music.

Everyone was involved from staff and residents to a real-life donkey, with Farnham councillor Pat Frost opening the performance.

Julie West, activity co-ordinator, said: “It went really well, it was so lovely to watch everyone and Mr Kipling the real donkey.

“We invited along the residents of Grace House to watch, which we do every year, and afterwards they enjoyed some mulled wine and mince pies.

“Everyone loved it, the residents worked so hard.”
