Russ Francis: Very proud to be involved in the Fairy Trail. What a fantastic event and well done to the organisers and all the helpers. More window repairs secured for the Church.
And turn up they did! 55 delegates from 40 parish and town councils were treated to a fascinating day of presentations on all aspects of street lighting and they went away full of enthusiasm to get their projects moving. Thanks to all delegates, speakers and exhibitors.
