Oxfordshire streets compete for £1,000 festive prize

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 15 Nov, 06:01 · Archive

Oxfordshire residents can win £1,000 in vouchers by entering a nationwide competition for Britain's Most Festive Street.

Oxfordshire residents have the chance to win £1,000 in high street vouchers and what Tenpin describes as 'the ultimate Christmas party' by entering a nationwide competition searching for Britain's Most Festive Street. The bowling company is inviting entrants to submit photos of their street's decorations from last year.

Brad Baddams, head of operations at Tenpin, said the competition aims to bring communities together. 'Christmas should be a time when communities come together, and we want to help turn Christmas up to ten this year,' he said. 'Through our Britain's Most Festive Street competition, we want to celebrate the streets that go all out for Christmas, encourage more people to get involved and have fun, and bring a little extra festive magic to communities across Britain.'

Tenpin's research found that 35 per cent of Brits do not plan to send Christmas cards to neighbours this year, and nearly half have never spoken to some of their neighbours. However, 49 per cent said they would love to see everyone on their street decorate their homes for Christmas, and 44 per cent believe festive decorations would make their community friendlier. Some 69 per cent said they would be willing to help an elderly or vulnerable neighbour decorate their home for Christmas.
