LETTERS tinged with joy and sadness have flooded into the Examiner following the launch of the Christmas Wish Campaign.

The appeal is run every year by Huddersfield Pendragon Round Table and asks Examiner readers to nominate deserving people or groups to have their own Christmas Wish granted.

We've had letters from mothers, grandmothers, neighbours and community groups.

They have told stories of triumph over adversity or of individuals who brighten up the lives of people around them.

Over the next few days the Examiner will be featuring those who have had their Christmas Wish granted.

Huddersfield Pendragon Round Table members have worked flat-out over the last few weeks delivering good cheer to families.

This year's chairman Carl Pearson said: "We have been extremely touched by some of the letters. It is an honour to be able to help such deserving causes in the true spirit of the festive season."
