There will be a display of Christmas Lights at the home
of an RNLI supporter on Sunday 13th December at 25 Shaftesbury Road,
Weston-super-Mare, near the bottom of Ashcombe Park.
Leon Beckingham has built an
impressive display of Christmas lights on his house and gardens over many years.
Each year he has a special day when the lights are shown in aid of a charity
which he supports. This year it is the RNLI which is the charity that saves
life at sea. The money raised will go to supporting the work of the RNLI which
is entirely dependent on voluntary contributions and whose lifeboat crews are
volunteers.
Mr Beckingham said;
“I have been doing the lights for
about six years and have raised about £1000 pounds for different charities
including children's Hospice South West and Clic Sergeant. This year I
choose the Life Boat Service because it’s a service I could not do. I admire
all those people who everyday put their lives at risk each time they enter the
sea (I don't like water) and the increased awareness will help keep donations
for them to survive and save many.
Please support our Christmas
Light display .on Sunday 13th December at 25 Shaftesbury Road, W-s-M. near the
bottom of Ashcombe Park. Collection to take place all day and early evening.
Thanks Leon “
