GO with the floe was the message on Saturday when Wyre Forest residents young and old strapped on their skates and stepped out on to the ice.

Back by popular demand, an artificial ice rink drew the crowds in the High Street, Kidderminster outside the Swan Centre with all proceeds boosting the town's Christmas lights Fund. Laura Dring and Sophie Stokes take to the ice.

Festive fun lined up in Kidderminster in the run up to Christmas includes a day of traditional dance on Saturday, December 15, street entertainment with a tap dancing puppet on Saturday December 22 and late night shopping from Monday, December 17.
