YOUNG patients at the Royal Bolton Hospital received an Olympic-sized Christmas treat when gold medal-winning cyclist Jason Kenny made a visit.

He was joined by Father Christmas and the Mayor of Bolton, Cllr Anthony Connell, who handed out boxes of chocolates.

Cllr Connell also opened his Christmas Fair on Saturday at Bolton Town Hall to raise funds for the Mayor’s chosen charity.
