Christmas sparked in to life on Hillington Square as Freebridge Community Housing Chairman, Andy Walder, performed the annual switch on of the Freebridge Christmas Lights. Father Adrian was also invited along to bless the tree.
With the support of the Community Cafe and Providence Street Placeshaping Community Centre a festive feeling was brought to the square.

Afterwards, everybody was invited into the warm Community Cafe for hot drinks, mince pies and a performance by a local choir, Halcyon Singers.
The lights will be on for the whole festive season so don’t miss the opportunity to wander down to the square and take a look for yourself!
We hope everyone had a lovely time, and we’ll see you next when Santa comes to the Square on Thursday 21 December!
