In Pictures: Christmas Tractor Run brings festive cheer to streets of Bourne

A whopping 88 vehicles took to the roads for the event, which began at JJ Mac Ltd on Spalding Road.

Participants, many wearing Santa Claus and Grinch outfits, adorned their tractors with festive decorations and headed out to the town after the official launch by Town Mayor, Colin Patterson.

The event was the brain child of Tim Sleight, and organised by his daughter Lisa, with the support of volunteers.

“There were cheers and claps from our supporters who lined the streets to spectate,” said Lisa “What a fantastic crowd they all were. People in their hundreds lined the streets to show their support.”

“This Christmas event has been the biggest yet. All drivers paid £10 to participate, we also had a fantastic spread of tombola prizes for both adults and children.”

Funds raised at the event, which are still being counted, will be donated to The Butterfield Centre - which includes The Butterfield Community Pantry.

Lisa added: “Special thank you to our drivers, our Bourne town mayor Colin Patterson and his wife Fiona for judging our best dressed tractor competition, our photographer, our refreshments, Lincolnshire response unit for traffic control and our team of volunteers. Not forgetting our hosts JJ Mac Ltd - the support throughout has been extremely appreciated.”
