Three generations of one family are planning festivities after seven months of living in Cumbria.
A family of Ukrainians preparing for their first festive period in exile say their celebrations will be bittersweet this year.
The county is home to 568 refugees who moved as part of Homes for Ukraine scheme for those who fled war in their homeland. "In Ukraine the first holiday is on 19 December, St Nicholas Day [in Ukraine] and then we have New Year's Eve on 31 December, then on the 6 and 7 January we have Christmas," Ms Sheluntsova said.
"We will have a lot of parties this year and as well as joining Cumbrian parties, we will celebrate with our Ukrainian friends here for the first time on 25 December and then celebrate again at New Year and again in January," she added.Cumbrian hosts Tony and Anna Gorst fundraised to bring Ukrainian refugees to Arnside
