We would like to thank everyone that have already visited and supported our 2023 festive display, located on Newhall Road, Doncaster.
For those who have not heard, this year we decided to push our display even further to help raised funds towards the ongoing support for our dear neighbour Pollie.
For those who may not be familiar with Pollie's story, she was born prematurely at 24 weeks, weighing only 1lb 10oz (739g). Pollie faced significant health challenges during her 23 weeks in the hospital, including a brain bleed that resulted in a diagnosis of Hydrocephalus—a serious condition she will carry with her throughout her life.
Pollie continues to fight against the odds, dealing with Hydrocephalus, Epilepsy, and Cerebral Palsy. Despite the challenges, Pollie remains a determined and strong-willed teenager. Her daily life involves numerous treatments, therapies, and exercises aimed at building her strength to overcome the obstacles she faces, including learning to walk.
The funds raised will go towards enabling Pollie to attend Intensive Neurological Rehabilitation Centre for 3 weeks of therapy In Leeds at Motion Rehab.
Our lights are programmed and synced to create a spectacular display, with over 19000 individual LEDs. We have created a blend of static and controllable pixels lights as well as adding some additional features including two large LED trees and 2 large pixel screens. The display will be visible from 16:00 - 21:00 each day through to January 2nd
