The cast of Snow White with staff and children

HELEN Flanagan and the cast of the M&S Bank Arena pantomime Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs have paid a surprise festive visit to Liverpool Zoe's Place hospice in West Derby, bringing Christmas cheer to children and their families.

The cast spent time chatting, taking photographs and playing with the children before leading a singalong to Jingle Bells.

The production stars ex-Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan alongside X Factor finalist Sean Smith as The Prince, comedy favourite Bippo as Muddles, Andy Brennan as Dame Dolly, Ellis Lloyd as Snow White and Rebecca Lake as The Fairy.

Zoe's Place provides respite care, therapies and bereavement support to babies and children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, as well as support for their families.
