Living Advent Calendar: This year, the community of Harpur Hill, on the south side of Buxton, has created a living Advent calendar. Every evening during Advent at 6.30 pm, another house in the neighbourhood lights up a numbered window. Ours was number 8. People have put in a huge amount of effort and the creations look wonderful. By Christmas Eve, there will be a trail of 24 beautiful festive windows for the community to enjoy. Donations to the local hospice are encouraged.
