Christmas Tree Festival 2025

December 2025 saw our 9th Christmas Tree festival take place in the church with 80 trees showcasing Trowbridge schools, churches, charities and organisations.  Consensus of opinion from visitors and those involved was that this year was the biggest and best festival so far.

A huge thanks goes to all involved in any way from donating mince pies, stewarding, preparing the church and clearing it in time for Sunday’s service, it really has been a whole church collaboration! A special thanks goes to Dilys and her team of helpers who ensured all proceedings went to plan.

The Festival was very well attended, a rough count, excluding children is over 1,300! The delivery of the church Christmas cards before the event definitely contributed to some of our visitors attending.

Early indications are that the festival has raised over £3,000. This will be split between 3 charities; Stand by Me, Storehouse Foodbank and the Mothers’ Union Literacy Program.

It will be a challenge to beat this for 2026 but with enquiries for seven new trees next year our 10th year may well succeed!
