A PUB landlord is throwing his doors open on Christmas day and cooking for those in need.

Mad Pierre at The Chestnut Tree Inn, Worcester is once again fundraising for his Christmas lunch for people in need.

The pub has been hosting the event for 25 years. Mad Pierre said: "I've got no family myself so they are my extended family on Christmas Day. I think it's a good cause."

As usual he is cooking a roast with all the trimmings on Christmas Day.

The funding for this event is raised by the regulars. To date the pub has raised £765.

Bookings are taken on 01905 22240.
