PEOPLE may not be able to celebrate together this year — but one community has found a new way to enjoy the festive season whilst staying apart.
The traditional Carol Concert and Lights Switch On in Woodley Town Centre has been cancelled due to coronavirus restrictions, and is going virtual instead.
Brian Fennelly, Woodley Town Centre Manager, has created a film of the Woodley Lights and Carols to make sure everybody can celebrate the festive season while staying safe.
And he is inviting all of Woodley to stand on their doorsteps this Saturday and watch the virtual Switch On together.
“Bring a phone or tablet or even bring a TV,”Mr Fennelly said, “and join in the biggest and loudest Woodley Christmas Lights Switch On ever.”
The event is at 6pm this coming Saturday.
