For the third year running, the Wilbrahams’ Winter Wonder Walk is back for Christmas 2021!  On each day from 1st to 24th of December a different house or business in Great or Little Wilbraham will display an Advent window.

Visitors to the windows will be able to record those they have seen on specially designed Advent Sheets.

Prizes will be awarded for Best Window Displays (as voted for by the Advent walkers)!

Walkers can win prizes for visiting the Greatest number of windows or in the Prize-draw for those who have visited at least seven of the windows.

There will also be collections for Jimmy’s Night Shelter and for Great Wilbraham Primary School. 

 

Would you like to display a window in this year’s Wilbrahams’ Winter Wonder Walk?

If so, this is what it involves:

  • Decorate a window in an imaginative way, to be displayed on your allocated day between 9am to 9pm for visitors to see (you may state a preference for specific dates). You can, of course, leave your decoration up for as long as you want – the allocated day refers to when visitors can view the window up close.
  • The window should be easily visible from the pavement, your drive or front garden (visitors are not allowed to enter your house or back garden).
  • You will be given a laminated card to display in your window (with a letter from the alphabet). This should be visible in your window on your allocated day.
  • On occasional days, there will be collections for Jimmy’s Night Shelter. If your day happens to fall on a collection day, you will be asked to place an empty box under the window. The PTFA will provide and collect these.

What you need to do next:

To participate with a window-display please email wilbrahamptfa@gmail.com or post a note to “PTFA, 79 High Street, GW” or “PTFA, 43 Church Road, LW” (by Sun 7th November at the latest), stating:

  • If you have a preference for a specific day or days
  • If you also have any suitable items/voucher that you would like to donate for the prize draws (not a requirement but hugely appreciated!)
  • The address of your window (your name, unless you are a business or local group, will not be displayed on the Advent sheets)
  • Your contact details (preferably email).

We aim to confirm your allocated date by Saturday 13th November. (Please note that if demand exceeds expectations, some window displays may have to share the same dates.)

Thank you!
