Southport Charity Christmas Parade takes place today (Sunday, 5th December), and will pay an emotional tribute to two friends who died in a tragic accident last week.
Marie Cunningham, aged 79, and Grace Foulds, aged 85, passed away following a road traffic collision on Lulworth Road in Birkdale on Tuesday, 30 November.
Today, all those taking part in this year’s parade will honour Marie and Grace as they drive past.
Southport Charity Christmas Parade makes a welcome return today after being postponed last year due to Covid restrictions.
The largest vehicle light parade in the North West will leave Pontins in Ainsdale at 4pm before making its way to Southport, finishing at Southport Pleasureland. The full route is below.
Event organisers Adam Holmes-Brown and Paul Holmes said: “It’s parade day today and we can’t wait to see you all.
“We have received a message from Lynn of the daughters of one of the ladies that sadly lost their lives on Lulworth Road the other day.
“Lynn and her mother watched the parade every year as we passed their home on Lulworth Road.
“Lynn has requested we make as much noise as possible for her mum and her friend.
“This we can do for you, our love goes out to you all.”
