Hello and welcome to our Christmas in Letchworth guide 2012.
We hope you like the new design which has been the culmination of efforts between the team at Love Letchworth and the Studio Hatch team at North Herts College. We’ve tried to keep the guide pretty clean and simple, focussing on the weekend events in the town over the Christmas period.
We’re starting with the Letchworth Arts Centre’s incredible annual festival on the 17 & 18 November and culminating with the Churches Together carol service on the 15 December. So, nearly a month of activity for you to enjoy!
With free parking every weekend at The Spirella Building there is no excuse not to make Letchworth Garden City your first choice for all your shopping needs.
Finally, just a personal thank you to Di Adkins, Anne-Marie Paterson and Matt Bean who have really stepped up to ensure that Christmas 2012 is a success. Thanks guys.
Merry Christmas Lee Boswell Town Centre Manager
