Christmas Elf Competition

The competition Winners have now been drawn and will be contacted directly, well done to everyone that took part!

 

Best Dressed Window

The Town Council have run a competition in conjunction with their lights switch on, for local businesses to take part in a best dressed window challenge.

Many of the shops in Alfreton chose to take part and it was a very difficult decision for the judge to make.

Wendy Comins of South Normanton Area Food Bank, the Town Mayors chosen charity, has kindly chosen the winner after visiting each shop one afternoon. ‘It was not an easy job because each one was beautifully decorated, many in a style in keeping with the shop itself. I chose ‘Pierce of Art’ on Central Road. The display reminded me of an old fashioned Christmas with stockings hanging on the fireplace, a blazing fire and presents around the tree’

Well done to the staff at Pierce of Art; Lesley, Elizabeth, Jess, Lucy and Abbey, they will be presented with their prize by the Town Mayor, Councillor Mary Kerry next week.

This morning at 9:00am, Town Mayor, Councillor David Taylor, led a poignant commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of VE Day at Alfreton House.

In honour of Victory in Europe Day, Councillor Taylor read the official proclamation before raising the VE Day flag, paying tribute to the courage and sacrifice of those who served during the Second World War.

The short ceremony served as a moment of reflection for the town, marking the 80th anniversary of the end of the war in Europe and reminding residents of the importance of peace, unity, and remembrance.
