Christmas in Spondon starts with a bang!

The crowds again enjoyed the switch on of Spondon's Christmas Lights this year, with a spectacular fireworks display and a visit from Santa amongst the events throughout the village.

Once again, the support and turnout from Spondon was tremendous and the lights and trees throughout the village looking very festive, as do many of our local shop windows - congratulations to all involved!

The Spondon Neighbourhood Board have said that they will be looking to close some roads in the village in future years for safety and to create more space for children's rides and entertainment.

Board Funding supports Switch On
