It started in 1994 when brothers Paul and Lee Brailsford were teenagers and has now become a festive highlight in the name of raising money for one of Bristol's most loved charities, Wallace & Gromit's Grand Appeal which supports sick children and their families at Bristol Children's Hospital. The Brailsford's lights are recognised as one of the largest private Christmas lights displays in the UK, the family has so far raised £68,000 from generous public donations for the Bristol Children's Hospital charity. The spectacle of over 50,000 Christmas lights takes six weeks to build and boasts 15 Santas, 10 reindeer, 10 snowmen, 50 rope-light shapes, trains, elves and a life-size nativity powered by 100,000 LED lights. The house will light up every night until Thursday 2 January 2020 from 5pm to 10pm. Wallace & Gromit's Grand Appeal is the dedicated Bristol Children's Hospital charity. It runs a multi-million-pound portfolio of investment in partnership with the children's hospital and its Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St Michael's Hospital, Bristol.
