Local MP Dr Eilidh Whiteford has congratulated the organisers of Saturday’s Christmas Lights Switch-On and Victorian Theme Day on a successful event.

The event, which was organised by Banff, Macduff & District Business Association and the Banff & Macduff Christmas Lights Committee drew a steady crowd of shoppers to Banff town centre.
Commenting, Dr Whiteford said:
“I was delighted to be asked to participate in the day’s activities. There were some great costumes on display as people really got into the spirit of the event.
“The organisers put in a huge amount of effort and deserve our gratitude
“The town centre is looking very festive and I hope that it will help to attract more shoppers into the town and give a boost to local businesses in the run up to Christmas.”
