THREE-week old Matthew Cooper was the youngest member at the Little Angels second birthday party held in the narthex of St Mary's Church, Mellor.

Following monthly Holy Communion, conducted by the vicar, the Rev Peter Hudson, the children played games, sang songs and tucked into a birthday cake.

The group, pictured at the party, meets on the last Tuesday of each month and all pre-school children, their mums and grans are welcome.
