Good Evening All,
Now Halloween is over and bonfire night is almost here, it’s normally round about this time of year we would be starting preparations to light up the street ready for Christmas.
Unfortunately, this isn”t the status you might be expecting.
It is with deep regret that we will not be lighting up the street or collecting for charity. Sadly, last years inconsiderate visitors created a lot of stress and upset for our organisers and collectors and after all the hard work that goes into the preparations, we have decided that we just cannot provide this attraction this year. Despite having free parking at the Riverside Hotel, visitors decided to block paths, driveways and abuse our collectors when politely asked to move.
This, coupled with the current bridge restrictions have helped us to come to this decision.
We know this will be disappointing for you all, as it is for us.
We would like to thank everybody for all the support and donations to the various charities that have benefitted over the years. Your support and generosity have been phenomenal and we truly could not have done it without you.
We wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a Happy and healthy new year.
Messaging function will now be turned off.
