Shed no tiers! Here’s six fun ways to spend your weekend safely while in tier 3
From Christmas trails to carols, we’ve got you covered…
We’re in tier 3 but there’s still plenty to enjoy, whether it’s a socially distanced walk or a virtual concert. If you’re out and about, do keep your distance, and follow all the guidelines…
Spot reindeer in Wimbledon
Download the app and go on a hunt through Wimbledon town centre to find the colourful reindeer. The augmented reality experience promises a virtual Winter Wonderland, while also getting you out into the fresh air. See them now, until 3rd January. The Christmas market is on this weekend, too. lovewimbledon.org/wimbledon-reindeer-trail/
