I've raised £1000 to install a Christmas tree on Pembury village green

Thank you to everyone that donated towards the cost of the Christmas Tree on the Village Green! To celebrate, we would like to invite you all to the official 'switching on of the lights', with carols and mince pies around the tree on Friday 6th Dec from 5pm!
See you there.

You may have seen in the press that Pembury Christmas lights have been banned this year by KCC because our lamp posts can't take the weight of an 8kg decorations. It's too late in the day to fix the lamp posts but there have been calls from many residents to install a tree on the village green. Your parish council would love to do this - in fact we looked into it earlier in the year. The cost for the decorative lights and to get electricity to the tree safely is £1,800 (plus the tree). If you'd like to contribute towards the costs we can get this done - and ensure that Pembury has a Christmas this year. https://www.kentlive.news/news/kent-news/sadness-kent-county-council-bans-3563367
