Fireman John's light display

Fireman John’s Christmas lights have been delighting family, friends and neighbours for 27 years at his home and this year he decided to invite people to enjoy the lights, and also make a voluntary donation to the charity. The SatNav reference is SY3 7TP.

Fireman John said: “Alder Hey has benefitted and supported numerous Shropshire children and their families of many years. At a time when many people are experiencing financial pressures, I am extremely grateful for their generosity. Last year we raised more than £900 from well-wishers that had visited the Christmas lights and we would dearly love to raise £1000 this year. Donations can be made in person at the lights, or online at www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Philip-Cotton2 People can also go to the Just Giving website www.justgiving.com and use the Search Facility for ‘Fireman."

The lights stay on until Sunday.
