Manchester Police held the annual holiday Senior light tour with the help of Manchester Transit, and Crime Line Volunteers. Over a hundred Seniors boarded six MTA buses and toured Manchester and Bedford to see the vibrant Christmas light displays.

After the tour on the busses, they arrived at MPAL where they were greeted by some enthusiastic children to welcome them, and then enjoyed treats donated by several local businesses. They were entertained to music as a member of Manchester Police visited and had fun with them.

Santa and his special elf visited the Seniors, and let them know who had been naughty and nice.

St Catherine’s school children provided handmade Christmas cards which were handed out by MPD Officers. The participants were given special gift bags and containers to take some extra treats home with them.
