The Beverley Christmas Lights Group and Beverley Chamber of Trade are delighted to announce that this year, a main sponsor has stepped forward with financial support for a large tree and lighting up ceremony in Wednesday Market on Friday 30th November.
Richard Allen, Managing Partner at QualitySolicitors Lockings says:
“As a local business we recognise the value of the Christmas lights and hope to encourage other businesses to lend their support.”
“All traders and service providers in the town will benefit from us pulling together to brighten up the town, hopefully increasing both footfall and average spend.”
“The Christmas Lights Group work hard all year round to raise funds for the lights, their work is paying off as Beverley looks fantastic throughout the Christmas period.”
“As part of our sponsorship we have purchased a 20 ft tree to be erected in Wednesday Market and we are also arranging a special guest to attract people to the official lighting up ceremony on Friday 30th November.”
Gill Barnes, from the Christmas Lights Group says:
“The common goal of our Group and the Chamber is to make Beverley more appealing to visitors. We are delighted that QualitySolicitors Lockings volunteered their financial support to the Christmas Lights Group, Wednesday Market is going to look beautiful and we hope plenty of people will turn out to see the switch on.”
Keith Loveday, Secretary from the Beverley Chamber of Trade says:
“It’s our mission to make Beverley as successful as possible and to attract visitors.”
“The kind support of QualitySolicitors Lockings reinforces that fact that in these times of austerity, it’s great to see businesses and community organisations pulling to together to deliver a memorable event for the good of Beverley as a whole.”
The town’s lighting up ceremony will be on Friday 30th November and this year all groups involved will be working together to make it the best event yet.
