The events sold out, and Colette Kerr, town council events officer, said that she is delighted to invite visitors back to the Town Hall.

She said: "The Welcome Back Fund has given us the opportunity to hold free community events open to everyone.

"In doing so, it will encourage people back into our town centre safely to support local businesses."
