We were asked to visit a family Christmas event in Cambridge that was aimed at less well off and disadvantaged families over the Christmas period, as well as help to engage with children with sensory needs. Troopers were patrolling a winter wonderland with Christmas lights, trees, music and smells, but refrained from exploring the gingerbread cookies on offer. A wookie was found, but let off with a warning.
