Children at Wells Cathedral School have made hundreds of Christmas cards for residents of local care homes.

"We give our warmest thanks to the school and the children whose cards will brighten Christmas for so many vulnerable people," said Philip Welch who collected the cards on behalf of the Wells Dementia Action Alliance.

"We give our warmest thanks to the school and the children whose cards will brighten Christmas for so many vulnerable people.

"The cards are beautifully handmade with lovely handwritten messages inside."

The children have also added seasonal jokes like "What kind of motorcycle does Father Christmas ride? A Holly Davidson!"

As the children were so prolific here will be enough cards for service users at local charities Heads Up and The Lawrence Centre.
