    Story

    Highgate Village Christmas lights are only possible by way of kind donations from residents, shopkeepers, other businesses, advertisers and sponsors. For several years the lights have been organised by a voluntary committee of local tradespeople collectively known as Highgate Festive Events, a non-profit organisation. Once again, this year we need to raise funds to make the Highgate Village Christmas lights possible and are asking for any kind contributions to support this much-loved annual tradition. It costs around £15,000.00 every year to pay for the lights and we try to raise this via local business donations, sponsors, the public and Local Authority contributions. This year, there is no funding on offer at all from Camden Council so donations are needed now more than ever. If you are able to help, any donations are gladly received!

    Here are a few other ways in which you can help the Highgate Village Christmas lights project:

    1. Share our posts to make everyone aware that this is a community project. Let's get the word out .

    2. Pop any spare change into the fundraising boxes that are in Winkworth Estate Agents, Pricket & Ellis, or Taylor Gibbs - all of which are on Highgate High Street.

    3. Get involved, support our fundraising events and efforts or perhaps even organise an event yourself.
