🚨 I love to see the Christmas lights go up across our Borough every year. They really add to our town centres during the festive season and make many people smile when they see them!

This year I went to the Christmas light switch on in Benfleet. A huge well done to the Benfleet Christmas Action Group who organise the Christmas lights along Benfleet High Road every year, and to the South Benfleet School Choir who treated us to an excellent Christmas concert before the switch on.

Thank you to all the community groups, organisation and businesses involved in putting up Christmas lights around our town centre and spreading that extra bit of Christmas cheer throughout our communities.
