Camelon Community Centre was awarded £1000 by Asda Falkirk to help with the cost of organising its annual winter festival for young kids living in deprived areas.

The money allowed each child to meet Santa and receive a special gift, as well as enjoy various activities including face painting, inflatable slides and bouncy castles and a craft room to create Christmas lanterns.
