To bring a bit of Christmas cheer to Cley-next-the-Sea, special Cley Advent Windows will be lighting up every day until Christmas Eve.

It's been organised by Cley Harbour to help raise some money after fundraising was hit during the pandemic.

Six decorated windows in the village will be illuminated every day between 4pm and 8pm until Christmas Eve.

Cley Harbour chairman Simon Read said “Like many community organisations, our fundraising has taken a real hit this year. Cley Advent Windows gives everyone a chance to enjoy something a little different this Christmas, in a very Covid-safe way”.

Simon Read added “In recent years, the harbour at Cley has been brought back to life as a result of a lot of hard work by the local community with support from the Parish Council. We are running this event as a fundraiser for Cley Harbour and anyone wishing to donate can do so by finding Cley Harbour on justgiving.com or by dropping a donation through the special letterbox at Porticus in the High Street. More importantly, this event is a way to spread some Christmas cheer in this gloomiest of years and we are so grateful to our friends and supporters in the village who have come together to create their windows – it wouldn’t have been possible without them”.
