Christmas comes early for Chernobyl children in Norfolk

Children in Norfolk have been celebrating Christmas a little bit early.

The charity wanted to show them a traditional British Christmas with roast turkey, carols and a special summer visit from Father Christmas.

The children live in areas contaminated by the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

It is hoped the month with their host families will improve their health.

During their stay they will get the opportunity to visit doctors, opticians and dentists.
