Welcome to the Allegro Winter Newsletter!
We hope you are all well and slowly getting into Christmas spirit.
We appreciate that the current COVID-19 guidelines & restrictions have meant that we are all adjusting to a different way of living. Although we expect this Christmas to be quieter than usual, it’s still a special time to celebrate. We thank you for all your continued cooperation and support this year.
Happy Holidays,
The Allegro Team
Make Your Own Christmas Decoration Competition!
As much as we would love to see you all for our annual Christmas do, with lights, music, nibbles and mulled wine, COVID has burst that balloon this year.
In lieu, we have launched a Make Your Own Christmas Decoration Competition! We will be providing every flat with a clear Christmas bauble and we would love to see you exercise your creative talents in decorating them. You can use anything you want to decorate them, and they’re fillable as well if you decide glitter is the way to go. Make sure you put your flat and building number somewhere on the bauble and when you’ve finished it pop down to reception and we’ll put it on our tree. The best bauble will receive a prize of £250 worth of Amazon vouchers so get those painting kits out! Here are some ideas to get you started:

The deadline for submitting your bauble is the 21st of December with the winner to be announced on the 23rd.
We look forward to seeing your entries!
Why not warm yourself up with a free hot drink courtesy of Boston Tea Party when you spend over £2.50! This offer can be found on the Allegro App under “Local Perks”.
Make sure to sign up so you don’t miss out on all that is happening. App downloadable via IOS App market and Google Play Store.
