"Everyone enjoyed themselves thanks to the planning committee led by Tonia Orims of the Nigerians in Watford Association."

Mr Turmaine also attended an open day at Watford Fire Museum, which was an opportunity for residents to learn more about fire fighting past and present.

The MP said: "It was also good to see all the old fire engines and the interesting photographic display at the museum too."
