Commenting on the event, Trust Director Adrian Bird said: “This has developed into one of our most enjoyable and successful Christmas events. It is great to see senior citizens from across Lisburn come together and celebrate Christmas in a relaxed and friendly environment.
“During the event our local community police were on hand to give advice and hand out information on home safety, the Journey Church sang carols and two of our local elected political representatives provided the entertainment.
“I would like to thank Laganview Enterprise Centre for organising the event, Lisburn SAFE for assisting with transport and the Northern Ireland Housing Executive Community Cohesion Unit for funding it.”
