It went on:"Free parking was originally provided by Shropshire Council - more recently Shropshire Council has charged £400 for the provision." Market Drayton's deputy mayor Tim Manton is supporting the idea to provide visitors free parking at the event."The festival of lights is another incredibly important event in market Drayton's calendar and there's no question in my mind that we shouldn't not try and promote it as much as we possibly can."Albeit the Festival of Lights is very well-supported by our community in Market Drayton but also by people out of the town who need somewhere to park their car.
The Christmas lights switch-on event is packed with children's entertainment including fun fair rides, face painting and donkey appearances, alongside live music and a visit from Father Christmas.'I'm in a wheelchair and about to be homeless - but the council won't rehouse us until we're on the street'
