THE PEOPLE of Liphook came together for the annual Carols in the Square on Monday.

Around 300 people turned up, and organiser Terry Burns was very pleased with how the evening went.

“It went very well and we had a good turnout of at least 300 people,” said Terry.

“We had 350 mince pies from Sainsbury’s, mulled wine, hot soup and the best chestnuts I’ve ever seen.

“I wouldn’t be able to do this without the support of my darling wife Carole, and all my dear friends in Liphook who have helped me over many years.

“Haslemere Town Band were marvellous and the money we raised will be split between the Royal British Legion in Liphook and Liphook Community Laundry.

“The Royal British Legion are going to put together a leather-bound book of remembrance which will hopefully be dedicated on the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War.”
