Council offering festive funding for lights switch-ons
The grants scheme gives local groups the opportunity to celebrate the festive season in their own special way and help bring a sense of Christmas cheer into their community.
Giving local communities greater input into the planning and organising of Christmas celebrations has previously proved very successful and it is hoped that this year the grants scheme will be more popular than ever.
