PLEASE could I appeal to people intending to attend Urmston Community Bonfire, at Chassen Road, on Saturday, November 2, to buy tickets in advance to avoid queues on the night.

Parking is available at Flixton Girls’ School.

May I also point out to those attending to deposit timber that we are unable to accept garden refuse or anything containing glass, rubber or plastic, on safety grounds.

Materials can only be accepted up to 11am on Saturday, November 2.

Private fireworks are not permitted at the event.

Given the full cooperation of all we look forward to a safe, enjoyable evening for all concerned in aid of local charities.

Alan Vernon on behalf of Urmston Lions Community Bonfire
