Mark and the team have raised more than £25,000 for the charity over the years.

Mark said: “When the lights are switched on at the Queen Vic, it’s the claxon that Christmas has begun in Priddy.

“Christmas is all about children and when you see what incredible work CHSW does with young people and their families, it spurs us all on to make the display bigger and better each year and raise as much money as possible.”

CHSW Area Fundraiser Kylie Gallagher said: “We are so grateful to have the continued support of this popular and well loved Christmas lights switch on.”
