Coun David Hennigan said: “Everyone knows that Christmas comes early in Sutton.

"Evidence shows that a great Christmas Lights display and amazing tree attracts shoppers and brings people into our Town Centre.

"We’ve started really early this year. We hope our brilliant displays and yuletide atmosphere will bring more and more people to use our shops and enjoy our award winning indoor market as we gear up for our best and longest Christmas ever.”
