St Margaret’s Church is inviting local community groups, charities and schools to decorate a Christmas Tree to showcase their organisation at this year’s Christmas Tree Festival taking place at St Margaret’s church on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 December.
Stunning Nordmann Fir Christmas Trees, supplied by Moss and Moor, will be festooned with lights and styled to capture the essence of each organisation’s unique personality.
Organiser Joanne Tomlinson said: “St Margaret’s will be filled with stunning Christmas trees showcasing the work of many vital community groups and charities and our local schools in Ilkley. It’s a great opportunity for visitors to get to know the many services which support our local community and enjoy some Christmas cheer in our beautiful church. As well as browsing among the spectacular trees there will be a programme of live music across the two days including performances by the Rock Choir, St Margaret’s choirs and primary school children from local schools singing their hearts out on Friday afternoon.”
Included in the festivities will be an array of freshly baked cakes and mince pies, sausage rolls, coffee, tea and juices will be on sale to tempt you to sit a while, chat with friends and enjoy the music and entertainment in this beautiful space.
If you would like your organisation to be involved please contact Joanne Tomlinson to reserve a tree for £35 (and yours to take home) please email Joanne at st.margarets.treefestival@gmail.com no later than Saturday 12 October.
