A Royston garden centre is hosting a Christmas shopping night to raise money for a cancer charity.
Dobbies will hold its late-night Christmas shopping event on Thursday, November 21, from 5pm to 9pm.
The evening will raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust.
Ayesha Nickson, Dobbies' events programme manager, said: "Our annual Christmas Shopping Night is a fantastic way to get into the festive spirit, while contributing to a great cause.
"We have raised more than £1.39 million for Teenage Cancer Trust since the start of our partnership.
"We’re excited to welcome local groups to take part in this year’s celebrations, including the unveiling of the specially decorated Christmas trees.
"You can also get your Christmas shopping off to a great start with special offers and gift ideas for all your family."
Festive displays and Christmas music will welcome customers who can browse the 2024 festive collections, as well as special offers on the night.
Guests will be greeted with a complimentary glass of fizz and there will be festive food treats and live demonstrations throughout the store.
There will be a two-course Christmas menu available for £17.
Community groups are also invited to apply to decorate a fake Christmas tree to be unveiled on the night.
Groups will be selected to decorate their tree and put on a special tree-side performance with carols, readings, and songs, and the trees will form part of the store's festive displays.
Donna Bednarek, senior relationships manager for Teenage Cancer Trust, added: "We are incredibly grateful to Dobbies for their ongoing support and dedication to raising vital funds for Teenage Cancer Trust.
"Events like the Christmas Shopping Night help us to continue to provide life-changing care and support to young people with cancer across the UK.
