We are inviting you to take part in lighting up your windows this Advent 2022 following the last two successful years.<\/p>\n
The Advent Windows 2022 <\/strong>will encourage us all to wrap up warm and get out to view the windows throughout December. There will be a new window to see each night leading up to Christmas Eve when of course there will be all 24 on display.<\/p>\n This community fun event will run from the 1st-24th December, with the final window at St. Mary\u2019s Church. We would like you to take part; there is no entry fee, it\u2019s not a competition and adults and children can be involved.<\/p>\n How it works: – We need a minimum of 24 participants to decorate their windows. Participants will be allocated a date when they will light up their window for the first time and continue lighting up each day until 24th December. For those of us viewing the windows this will mean every day from 1st December a new window will be lit up to go and see so that by 24th December there will be 24 windows to view.<\/p>\n The windows can be designed and constructed from any media including lights, mobiles, cut outs etc. They can be as simple or technical as your artistic tendencies take you. They can be internal or external displays as long as they involve decorating your window. All the displays should relate to Advent \/ Christmas and can be humorous, artistic or topical. During previous years there was a great variety in size, contents, both humorous and stately, some with a modern portrayal and others of traditional designs.<\/p>\n The windows will be lit from 5 – 9pm each evening.<\/p>\n Each house participating will be asked to<\/p>\n – display a number corresponding to the date their window is \u2018opened\u2019 to differentiate it from other residents who will have their own Christmas decorations.<\/p>\n – keep their window a surprise as far as is possible before the designated revealing evening<\/p>\n If you want to participate you need to:<\/p>\n \uf02a live in a house that has a window (upstairs or down) that can clearly be seen from the street without people coming onto your property<\/p>\n \uf02a be happy to keep the window illuminated each evening after it is \u2018revealed\u2019 until December 24th<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are aware that many people give their time and money to support a host of different charities. If you would like to put a charity box outside your house you would be most welcome. Just make sure you empty the box each evening.<\/p>\n For more information ring: Glenys and Mike Tucker: 07922 109721 or Jude and Nige Billingham: on 02920594708 or 07516 112897.<\/p>\n Please let Jude Billingham know by October 16th that you want to decorate your window by supplying your name, address, email address, telephone number, and any preference you have about dates by email (judebillingham@yahoo.co.uk) by telephone, or text.<\/p>\n Please be aware that in agreeing to participate you are also agreeing to have your address identified on the windows map that will be made available so people can look for your window.
