Eagle-eyed residents may have spotted the Christmas lights going up in Purley today..
Purley BID have been working hard to finance and organise this year's lights. It is expected that the lights will be turned on this weekend.
There will be no formal switch-on event as the cost of a formal switch on is around £800 which could not be justified, especially when having to plan in advance in uncertain times.
I'm sure we're all very grateful for the BID's efforts in brightening up our district.
