It started as a single string of lights around the roof but now many of the residents join
in by lighting their homes up over the Christmas period. The residents also use this as an opportunity to raise money for
charity. Following the dedication and help from the team during
x-mas 2008, Highfield Lights will again be raising money for Midshires Search & Rescue (MSAR) in 2009.
MSAR is a self
funded lowland search and rescue organisation made up entirely of volunteers. They can be called out by the police to
assist in the search for members of the public who have gone missing, particularly if they are deemed to be especially vulnerable,
such as the elderly or young children. MSAR are also members of the Bedfordshire and Luton Emergency Volunteers Executive
Committee (BLEVEC), whose members are from voluntary organisations and provide assistance to the Bedfordshire and Luton Local
Resilience Forum (BLLRF) in the event of major incidents within the Bedfordshire and Luton areas.
For 2009 Highfield Lights will be lit up every night from
5pm until late starting Saturday 28th November until Sunday 3rd January 2010.
