CROWDS of people flocked to Loans Village Hall on December 1 to support Light Up Loans.

This annual festive event organised by Loans Gala Committee and they enthusiastically joined in the carol singing, raffle and tombola/bottle stall.

Santa appeared in his sleigh courtesy of Troon Round Table to give each child a selection box and to turn on the Christmas Tree Lights.

Mulled wine and shortbread was donated and served by the Old Loans Inn and Muirhead Co-operative also contributed the mince pies.

Another very successful and most enjoyable afternoon was had by all.
