This Sunday (20th December) a convoy of around 80 tractors will light up this weekend forming a magical Christmas convoy, making their way around Liverpool’s streets with one of their destinations being Alder Hey Children’s Charity.

Local farmer and organiser of the event Olly Harrison saw this being done over on the Isle of Man where farmers where decorating their tractors and taking to the streets to provide a spectacle for people to see so started to organise one here in the city.

Olly was sure he could do it bigger and better in Liverpool, and also raise money to help support Alder Hey, whilst also visiting Alder Hey Children’s Hospital to bring a smile on the children’s faces for Christmas.

The route for the tractors convoy will start and leave Water Lane, Tarbock Green, Prescot at 4:30pm on Sunday and is expected to take around 3 hours to complete.

Please see the route below:

There will also be even more blue lights lighting up the streets as Merseyside Police will be supporting the convoy and providing 9 Police motorbikes for the parade, all of the officers will be coming in on their day off to help support the event.

The target is to raise £5,000.00 from the event to help raises funds towards the pioneering work of Alder Hey Children’s Hospital. The funds will help ensure the 330,000 children treated each year have access to the best facilities and equipment. The event is also encouraging food donations to Fans Supporting Foodbanks.

To help support you can donate to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital on Olly’s JustGiving page at www.justgiving.com/fundraising/tractorslitup

Or you can donate to Fans Supporting Foodbanks at a drop off point at Stanley Park.

To anyone watching the parade please follow social distance guidelines, keep safe and enjoy this magical tractor Christmas convoy spectacular.
