Bonfire Night - Volunteers wanted
As the evenings draw in and a crisp, woodsmoke-scented air begins to settle over the village, we welcome once more the cosy glow of Bonfire Night and a hint of autumnal magic.
This year’s celebration will be held on Saturday 7th November, and the Heighington Event Committee with the Parish Council are already hard at work to ensure a safe, warm and memorable evening for neighbours and families.
To make it happen we need volunteers on the day and the following morning. Roles include:
Help to set out barriers
Supervision of the site (from 8:00 am on a rota)
Stewarding and crowd safety: Supervising barriers around the bonfire during the event
Bonfire inspection (including hedgehog checks)
Clearing the site the next day (raking, removing any metal debris, litter picking )
If you can spare some time to help, please contact the admin@heighingtonconnect.com or the Parish Council.
Thank you — your support keeps our village gatherings bright.
