Local resident and volunteer, Janet Stanton is Chair of the small group of volunteers who form the Fleet Christmas Festival Committee. “Each single year we are amazed by the incredible support we get from our local businesses and organisations. Without their sponsorship all this just couldn’t happen. So, come and join the thousands of people who flock to our high street to mark the kick-off to the festive season and get Christmas started."
