We’ve changed our settings to help others experience on Twitter. We hope you will too. It takes less than 30 seconds but can help those who struggle with vision. https://t.co/gssEevtsRb

@andyrob62660587 We certainly couldn’t have done it without BTAC, @bostonboro, @LincolnshireCC and all our generous sponsors and partners, along with the support of local businesses, the public and our hard working committee!

@Biddibops @5WrightStuff Certainly did, our volunteer committee have raised in excess of £25k in 7 months, and installed a fantastic lighting display both in the town centre of Boston, and on all approaches to the town too!

Over the past few months, we have been running a competition with BTAC to find someone to turn on the towns Christmas lights. On Thursday, we announced the winners.

@spartasteve @BBCRadioLincs Unsure why @Bostonboro are to be called "disgraced"... we have received a substantial amount of support from officers and councillors, plus we have also been kindly donated £10k in match funding from BTAC. This project wouldn't have happened without BBC & BTAC.

One of Santa’s little helpers found an extra toy in Santa’s grotto last night, which wasn’t one of his!
If your child left a toy by mistake, please get in touch with Pauline at @bostonboro and let’s get this toy reunited with its owner! https://t.co/b3qvEyGygG

[Boston Borough Council @Bostonboro]

If any child lost a toy at last night’s Christmas event one was found in Santa’s Grotto.
If you think the toy could be your child’s please email [email protected] with a description of the toy and hopefully we can reunite it with its owner.

[Christmas in Boston @BostonChristmas]

Did you get some amazing photos of last nights event? We’d love to see them!
Add them and please tag us!
