The 6^th annual Canford Heath Community Lights Switch-on event promises to be the biggest and best yet and we are sure it won’t disappoint.

As usual the event is being organised by ARCH in collaboration with members of the Canford Heath Community Centre, The Pilot Pub, Hub on the Heath Café, C-Star Cosplay, BH17 and Beacon Centre; together with support from many other local groups and residents including Men’s Shed. 

This year the event will take place on Friday 6^th December.

It will begin in the Neighbourhood Centre at 4:45pm, with the Poole Borough Band playing Christmas carols – followed by a torchlight parade along Adastral Road arriving in Adastral Square for 6pm.

The fun continues in the Square with stalls and entertainment including a DJ, face-painting, glitter tattoos, Super Hero characters, carol singing, and a visit from the Poole Rotary’s Santa Train.

There will also be a FREE Santa’s grotto in the Community Centre provided by the Community Centre volunteers, although you will need to book in advance by calling Becky on 07984 961 694 to reserve a slot.

This hugely popular event will be the perfect way to herald in the festive season and bring together friends and family with the wider community to celebrate together.
