Angmering residents celebrate the festive season with wreath-making workshop


David Wilson Homes has started the Christmas festivities at its Ryebank Gate development in Angmering, West Sussex, with a hands-on wreath making workshop for its for residents, hosted by local florist, Jessica Lila.
To mark the festive season, ten residents from Ryebank Gate came together for an afternoon of creativity and seasonal cheer, as they created wreaths to put on display in their own homes this Christmas.
Guests put their skills to the test by making unique door wreaths with natural and sustainable materials, including holly, pinecones, and clementine slices.
The workshop is part of David Wilson Homes’ ongoing commitment to offering enriching activities that promote community spirit.
Mark Vanson, Sales & Marketing Director at Barratt Redrow Southern Counties, commented: “Supporting local businesses has always been important to us and welcoming Jessica back to our developments for a second-year running was a great way to kick off the festivities.
“Seeing our residents so engaged and enthusiastic shows just how important these events are to help strengthen the sense of community and we look forward to seeing all the wreaths on the doors in the lead up to Christmas!”
Florist, Jessica from Jessica Lila, added: “Christmas is all about coming together and celebrating, and wreath making is a wonderful way to do this! It’s creative, calming and gives everyone something to take home. The residents were fantastic to work with and it’s kickstarted the festive season off perfectly.”
