Balham Christmas Lights Switch-on and Celebration 2021

The festive season is here!

Samuel Estates sponsors this year’s event and raises over £600 for Sarcoma UK

On Sunday 28th of November, Balham saw the return of the Christmas Lights switch-on event. An annual event that Samuel Estates sponsor every year. We were very lucky to have great weather this year with clear skies and no rain (just cold!).

The event is a chance for us to catch-up with our friends and neighbours and help to bring the community together. The event was sadly missed last year due to the pandemic so it was a great chance for us and ‘SAM’ to get back out there and spread some cheer as well as supporting Sarcoma UK ‘The bone & soft tissue cancer’ charity.

“Always my favourite Samuel Estates Charity Event of the year the Balham Christmas Festive with our friends at Wandsworth Council, Riverside Radio & Think Events London.

Great atmosphere, great entertainment with the participating schools, children and local Singers and of course the Mayor of Wandsworth & SAM our dog mascot turning the Christmas lights on.

Supporting Sarcoma UK in raising funds has been an absolute pleasure this year. They are a charity very close to our hearts and offer invaluable support to people who suffer from this terrible form of cancer. Only 1 in 4 people know about Sarcoma, Samuel Estates is committed to help change that by working with Sarcoma UK.” Nicholas Samuel, Managing Director Samuel Estates

The generous community of Balham helped us raise over £600 which will make an enormous impact, raising awareness, funding ground-breaking research and helping anyone affected by sarcoma access personal support and expert information. If you would like to find out more about sarcoma or require more information and support please do visit Sarcoma UK and reach out.
