Story


In what is now a tradition, I am decorating my house in lights to spread Christmas cheer. My house is on Kenn Estate, Kenn (the small row of houses on the main road between Clevedon and Yatton) and the lights will be on every evening from the 1st of December,

Decorating my house in lights takes time, effort and money, but it is worth it to see the joy it brings to my family and the positive feedback I receive from the local community.

My original motivation in 2018 was to create a festive event for my own children, nephews and nieces.  2020 has been tough on everyone but it is the impact on children that upsets me most. This year I have set up a Just Giving page so that people who appreciate my lights can donate to Springboard Opportunity Group. They are a local based charity who do amazing work supporting children with additional needs and disabilities. Please check out their website - https://www.springboardweb.org.uk/

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

About the charity
