After passing the home that this event is all in aid of, Katharine House Hospice, the convoy will continue to Aynho. From here the convoy will turn right to Clifton, pass through Deddington (via the marketplace), travel to Hempton and back through Barford St Michael returning to Spring Hill Farm.

Safety guidance for spectators

Please supervise all children in your group
Come prepared for the forecast conditions. Sometimes our tractors are slightly delayed, which means waiting in the cold.
Ensure you and any members in your party are stood on the pavement and off the road at all times.
There can be a lot of loud noise both form the crowds and from the tractors, so you may want to consider using ear defenders.
There are stewards and collectors along the procession route but these are all volunteers who have given their time freely, so please help us to keep everyone safe as we have limited resources.

Best Dressed Tractor:
Tractor drivers will be invited to take part in our ‘best dressed tractor’ competition and will be issued with a number when they sign up to take part. They will be asked to clearly display their number if they want to take part in the competition to enable spectators to vote for their favorite! Keep an eye out on Facebook for the opportunity to vote.
Don’t forget the all important donation details!
Text TractorLights 5 to 70085 to donate £5
Texts cost £5 plus one standard rate message. Want to donate a different amount? Whatever number is sent is the amount that is donated. For example, if you text ‘TractorLights 10’ to 70085, you will donate £10 to Katharine House Hospice.

Hedgehog Talk – 7pm, 4th October 2022,
2022-10-04 19:00 - 20:30
The UK hedgehog population has suffered a dramatic decline over the last 10 years. Critical to hedgehog conservation in urban environments is their ability to move through a wider landscape.
Wildlife expert, Stephen Powles, will describe how you can make your garden hedgehog friendly. He will then show how his brother, Chris, inspired the villagers of Kirtlington to take an interest in their hedgehogs and how they went on to create a “Hedgehog Superhighway” of interconnected gardens.
Cost is £5 cash on the night
Please book your space by emailing Janet on berrysorchard@gmail.com

Is your home leaking heat?
2022-09-27 19:00 - 21:00
Are you, or someone you know, worried about rapidly rising energy bills?
Would you like to reduce heat loss from your home?
Do you care about the impact of the continued use of fossil fuels on the environment?
Come and learn more at The Holly Tree, Deddington on Tuesday 27th September at 7 pm.
This event aims to offer practical support for vulnerable people in our parish and information for all homeowners keen to improve the thermal efficiency of their homes.
Dan Desmond, who has built his own eco-house in Deddington, will be explaining simple ways to identify heat loss using infra-red photography. And, along with Johnsons of Deddington, he’ll be demonstrating different, practical ways to insulate your home, from simple DIY installations to more comprehensive solutions.
You will have the opportunity to sign up for free infra-red external photograph(s) of you home (to be carried out by trained volunteers) and ask questions over refreshments. In the future our aim is to recruit a team of volunteers who can help those most in need with low and no-cost installations.
Please email DEN info@deddingtonenvironment.net to find out more and book your place or a drop a note to Dan Desmond at Middle Yard, The Tchure, Deddington, OX15 0UB, letting him know your phone no and how many people would like to attend the event.
