Cheshire Oaks switch on their Christmas lights.

TONIGHT Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet switched on their Christmas
lights, which marks the start of their four-day shopping festival.
With no celebrities appearing this year, up and coming
singers and Radio City 96.7’s presenters Jay and Claire from hit breakfast show
Rossie and Co. appeared at the event, along with the charity ‘Claire House’
raising funds.
The entertainment consisted of the choir, Harmony of
Handbags, signing ‘Sleigh Ride’ and Jessie J’s famous tune ‘Price Tag’,
followed by the Manchester Airport choir singing ‘Help’ by The Beatles and
‘Merry Christmas Everyone’. Celebrity Vocal coach, Yvie Burnett, who has been a
coach on X-Factor and various other shows, also took the stage to get the
crowd’s vocal chords warmed up.
Charlotte Parry-Ashcroft, 14, from Broughton said, “It has
been a bit disappointing, this is my first year here and it only lasted 40
minutes and there was no one famous, I heard there is always someone
famous.”
Abi Smith, Cheshire fundraising manager at ‘Claire House’
was there to explain what they do for children and young adults with
a life threatening or life limiting condition, as well as their
families. The stage then filled with children from ‘Claire House’ to help push
the plunger, which would light the Christmas tree and set off a spectacular
fireworks display.
