Since the Shepton Mallet Chamber of Commerce were unable to hold their annual 'Christmas Tree Switch On' event this year due to social distancing concerns, etc, they decided that they would hold a 'Best Dressed Christmas Window Competition' and are inviting residents and businesses to participate from December 5.

Entry is free, but you must register by sending a message on their Facebook page (@sheptonchamber) or email: [email protected].

Once they have a list of windows, they will publish where they can be seen (house numbers and streets only - no names) so everyone can enjoy your efforts.

Your decorations will be photographed from December 7 and their judges will determine the best Christmas window display.

The winners will be announced on December 19.

Prizes:

- Businesses - a bottle of bubbly or equivalent

Closing date for entries: Wednesday December 16
