More than £1,000 has been raised for charity thanks to a festive display.

Delma Thomas of Caersws put nearly 500 Christmas trees on show in her home at the end of last year, and invited her friends and acquaintances to visit her home and see the spectacular show.

There were trees of all shapes and sizes on display, including some which had been knitted or made of pottery.

In exchange, she asked them to leave donations towards her chosen charity.

At the end of the season Delma was able to present a cheque for £1,300 to the Wales Air Ambulance.

She said: “I was absolutely amazed by the generosity of family, friends and all who visited.

“It was a great bonus and well worth the effort of displaying the trees.”

Wales Air Ambulance needs to raise money to allow it to respond to about 2,500 emergencies a year, and has four airbase operations including one in Welshpool.
