With a year's supply of tea and coffee up for grabs, hospital staff got into the festive spirit to decorate wards and departments at The Horton Hospital, Banbury.

The prize was won by staff from Ward F, who came into the hospital on their weekends off to put up decorations, based on the theme of Christmas Around the World.
The contest was judged by Banbury mayor Tony Mepham and Fred Timms, whose father's company W Timms and Son donated a challenge cup for the competition in 1960.
