A village that suffered terribly in the storms of December has rallied round this weekend to plant flowers and welcome tourists back for Easter.
The residents of Glenridding organised the donations of flowers themselves and have set to work to make the rubble of landslips a little more beautiful.

People in Glenridding have been fixing their village since December.
When Storm Desmond brought stones off the fells, local contractors didn't wait for the environment agency, they dredged the beck themselves, while businesses repaired their own roads.
Now the village is covered in a colourful splash of nature's beauty to mask a month where she was cruel.
