Young Hero to Join Mayor for Bridgwater Christmas Light Switch-On

Bridgwater Town Council

A deserving young person will have the honour of joining the Mayor of Bridgwater on stage to switch on the town's Christmas lights during the annual Snowflakes celebration on Saturday 28 November.

Residents are invited to nominate an inspiring young person to help switch on Bridgwater’s Christmas lights alongside the Mayor during this year’s Snowflakes celebration. The event, which takes place on Saturday 28 November, brings the town centre to life with entertainment, market stalls, fairground rides, and family activities, attracting visitors from across the area.
Bridgwater Town Council and Bridgwater Town Team are seeking nominations for young people whose kindness, positivity, and determination have made a difference to others. This could include a child or young person who has overcome personal challenges, raised money for charity, volunteered their time, or supported friends or family.
The initiative aims to recognise and celebrate those who have made a meaningful difference to the lives of people around them. Residents, schools, youth groups, sports clubs, and community organisations are encouraged to submit nominations explaining why their chosen young person deserves this special honour.

The deadline for nominations is Friday 6 November.

Nominations can be submitted online at https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/dU5WsLGXVW. Bridgwater Town Council and Bridgwater Town Team look forward to celebrating the outstanding young people who help make Bridgwater shine throughout the year.
