Norbreck couple raise over £1500 for Brian House with winter wonderland
Jon and Michelle Nichol, of Mossom Lane, Norbreck, created a winter wonderland on the road outside their house on Wednesday December 18.
The kind-hearted pair invited local families to enjoy visits to Father Christmas, free food and entertainment from Thornton Cleveleys Brass Band and local choirs.

After totalling up their donations, they raised £1515.21 for the Bispham children's hospice.
Jon said: "This was just our way of raising money for Brian House at Christmas.
"It's a way of bringing the community together, while raising money for a local charity. It was a shame about the wet weather, but it didn't dampen the Christmas spirit."
