COULD I through your letters page thank everyone who helped make our Christmas tree light-up another success for Ashley Road?
The support we get from the local people is heartwarming.
It ranges from the children who sang for us (Sylvan and Manorside schools’ choirs and their art groups who produced the picture screens around the tree), the magnificent Swing Unlimited Community Band, not forgetting Lilly, and the Rev David Price for allowing us to use St John’s Church.
Thanks to Haven Lettings for sponsoring our tree and the local businesses who display the smaller trees and lights on their premises.
The wonderful team who help make it happen includes our chairman Richard Rex who puts the trees on to the shop fronts – and a special thank you to Waitrose's Alison and Andy who support us in so many ways Thank you one and all.
MICHAEL OCKENDON, Just Michael Hairdressing, Ashley Road, Parkstone
