‘Nobody should spend Christmas Day alone’: Village community Christmas returns

The Wivelsfield Community Christmas Lunch is returning on Christmas day in the village hall.

After the event was brought back just last year, it remained as a much-loved local tradition.

The idea of the lunch is centered around how ‘nobody should spend Christmas Day alone’.

The festivity is joyful, welcoming and for anyone in the area who would otherwise be spending Christmas Day by themselves.

The group’s website states: “Whether you've lost someone, live far from family, or simply fancy good company this year, there's a seat for you.”

It's entirely free, staffed by volunteers, and made possible by generous local sponsors.

A full traditional Christmas lunch is served from midday, followed by festive entertainment.
