A house in East Cambridgeshire will once again be lit up for the festive season - and all for a good cause.

John and Helen Attlesey will switch the lights on outside their home in Julius Martin Lane, Soham, later this week. 

Although there will not be an 'official' switch on this year, the house will be illuminated from from around 5pm on Friday November 1.

The Attleseys will also share their story during a conversation with local journalist DeeDee Doke at the Viva Theatre in Spencer Drive.

The talk is set to take place on Tuesday November 12 from 2pm.

Last year, the couple's display - which attracted visitors from across the county - raised £7,674.09. 

The funds were split between the following charities: East Anglia's Children's Hospices (EACH), Great Ormond Street Hospital and Children's Charity (GOSH), and Dreamflight. 

Money raised this year will go the same causes. 

"If you can spare any change when you visit, it all goes to some great causes," the couple said.

Tickets for the talk, which cost £5, include tea and coffee.
