A Christmas Eve banquet has been laid on at Birmingham's New Street station for hundreds of homeless people.

The three-course festive feast was served on The Station concourse, along with entertainment from carol singers.

Niah Blake, who has been homeless for five years, said "This is our Christmas. This is the only one we're going to get. "

Network Rail teamed up with Midland Langar Seva Society (MLSS) to feed 350 homeless and vulnerable people.

Volunteers from the Walsall-based charity, which follows a Sikh principle of helping and supporting people regardless of social status fed 200 people at The Station last Year .

"We're All Together and I know about 90% of the people Here . "

The food was donated and served by volunteers

Mr Cochrane's partner, Courtney Taylor , 19, from Redditch, said she had been given a leaflet about The Event by The Charity and wanted to come.

"It's different, but nice," She Said .

"We thought it would be a good thing to come to with everyone and glad we have. "

Diners were entertained by a DJ, musicians and a choir

Randhir Singh , MLSS co-founder, said The Group wanted to Show People love and support and The Event was "not just about serving food".

He said he was sad that Kane Walker was not at this Year 's event after.
