Ex-England Manager Gareth Southgate popped in to a Harrogate charity for a visit last week.
Southgate, who stepped down as the Three Lions manager in July, visited Horticap on Otley Road on Friday (13th December).
He posed for pictures with students before collecting his Christmas wreath.
Phil Airey, Assistant Manager at Horticap, said:
"Our students were so chuffed that he came in and he was an absolute star saying hello to everyone. A top wreath for a top fella!"
Horticap is an independent charity which provides adults with learning and other disabilities training in horticulture, allied crafts and rural skills.
