Westfield Christmas Lights: The community of Westfield raised an absolutely brilliant £8,187.57 for the Hospice during December 2018! The spectacular display of Christmas lights, which have become a special outing for many local families during the festive season, gets bigger and brighter each year. Thank you to Ken and everyone who decorated their houses in lights to raise money for the Hospice.

Westfield Community Choir: If you are thinking of trying something new in 2019, why not come along to Westfield Community Choir every Monday from 7-8pm in Westfield Church. This is a fun, friendly choir and members range from new beginners to some with a bit more experience. We sing lots of different songs including pop, musicals, folk and some traditional ones. It’s just £3 for adults and £2 for children (under 13’s must be accompanied). See their Facebook page Westfield Community Choir for more details, or ring Min on 0795 299 5743.
