FIFTEEN children – including two sets of triplets and a pair of twins – enjoyed a Christmas party staged by a family support group.

A visit from Santa and a festive feast were among the highlights of the event held at Menston Children’s Centre.

The party was organised by the North Leeds & Airedale group of Bliss, a charity which provides care and help for premature and sick babies and their families.

Among those involved in the group are Matthew and Sarah Ramsden, of Burley-in-Wharfedale, who are Airedale Hospital’s first Bliss Champions, offering peer support to parents of babies in the neonatal unit.

The support group meets on the last Friday of every month at Menston Children’s Centre, from 10am.
