Welcome to
Open Christmas Great Yarmouth |
UPDATE AT 13 NOV 2019
We’d like to remind prospective volunteers to please register here on the website - we have already had a great response for Christmas Day and appreciate that’s when most people want to help. However, Christmas Eve and our Clear Up Day, 27th December, are also important days. So if you can give up a bit of your time on those days too, we’d love to hear from you. The goodie bags will be filled first thing on Christmas Eve, so if you want to help with that exciting task, then book in for the 8am slot!
Please note that this year’s Volunteer’s Meeting will be held
at the Minster at 10am on Saturday 7th December.
This will give us a chance to show you the new venue (as well as introduce the new committee) and answer any questions you have about the event.
By the end of this week, our trollies will be ready to receive donations in the Minster and the Town Hall. We need items for the goodie bags which each guest will take home after dinner. Examples of items needed are Tinned/packet foods (sweet and savoury), Soup, Pot noodles, Cakes, Biscuits, Chocolates, Sweets, Crisps, Nuts, Mince pies, Christmas cakes, Teabags etc etc.
We also need lots of christmas crackers to make the big day go with a bang!
Finally, we’d love to hear from anyone who has access to a minibus with a wheelchair lift and anyone who would like to arrange some christmas music or carol singing.
If you know of any guests who need transport to the event, the number to ring is
07928 927053 to book.
Many thanks for your support and remember to keep spreading the word
(but no jumble) 😄 Thank you.
