Anglicans, Baptists, Methodists, Catholics, the Salvation Army and the United Reformed Church gathered at Jubilee Gardens in the Chatteris High Street and marched through the town to the Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, briefly stopping outside Bramley House and outside the church to sing hymns before heading inside for prayer.

Reverend canon Wendy Thomson said that Christians perform the Walk of Witness each year on Good Friday to "remember what Jesus did when he carried the cross for us on the first Good Friday".

She went on to explain that the purpose of the day is "not about teaching" but actually that it is "a way to be public with our faith".

She sad: "It's a public demonstration of our trust in the work of Jesus on the cross."
