Couple's incredible Christmas light display for charity - with their bills only costing £2 a night

A house in Fishponds adorned with Christmas lights and Santa inflatables is not only a spectacle for the public to enjoy but also a way of raising money for charity. Rich Challenger and his partner Jordan Evans started to display Christmas lights outside their house last year.

Mr Challenger was inspired by other festive houses around the city and felt that where he lives in Fishponds was rather dull and thought it would be nice to spread some Christmas joy. This year, the display in Gill Avenue is even bigger and with the support of their neighbours who live in the ground floor flat, they have been able to split the electricity cost.

This year's display will also help to raise money for a cause close to Mr Challenger's heart, Young Epilepsy. His younger brother sadly passed away from epilepsy and he also has several family members with the condition.
