A team of 20 volunteers spent five days building a giant 25ft (7.6m) Christmas tree made from 100,000 balloons.

Balloon artist Naomi Spencer says the unique festive structure is the UK’s first balloon Christmas tree.

The team spent nearly a week inflating and assembling the creation, now displayed inside a giant snow globe. Naomi said the tree, made from biodegradable balloons, came with huge technical challenges.

On behalf of #Smileforjoel a big congratulations to Naomi and her team.

Please show your support and go and visit the tree at its “free to visit”.
