TWO sisters supported by a children’s hospice have switched on Clifton’s Christmas lights.
Zeniah McKee, 5, and sister Kirianna, 11, helped by mum and dad Marc and Dana, pressed the ‘red button’ to light up the spectacular Christmas tree, which heralds the start of the festive season in Clifton.
The family, who are supported by Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) at its Charlton Farm hospice in Wraxall , were invited to switch on the illuminations in The Mall Gardens by BID Clifton Village at an event on November 20 which included carol singing from Christ Church Primary School pupils led by The Rev Paul Langham.
The countdown to the switch-on was led by event organiser Tony Miles – aka Smiley Miley – who organises the annual extravaganza.
Tony said: “The switch on is a fantastic village community event which signals the start of the festive season. BID Clifton Village is proud to support Children’s Hospice South West this year as its charity partner this year.
