Whilst Christmas will undoubtedly be different for many this year, several churches have joined forces to remind the community of their presence using this Christmas treasure hunt from Scripture Union.

Families - in addition to the festive trail - will also be able to view artistic displays in Abington Avenue United Reformed Church, Park Avenue Methodist Church, St Gregory the Great and the Church of St Peter and St Paul in Abington Park.
