Are you lighting up lives with your Christmas decorations this year, raising money for charity, or just spreading joy with hundreds of twinkling lights?

If so, we want to hear from you.

Maybe you have created a Santa’s grotto inside your house, or you have hundreds of blinking bulbs on the outside.

As always, The Guardian will be featuring pictures of homes across Epping Forest and Waltham Forest brightening up streets for Christmas.

If you have, let reporter Natalie Glanvill know on 07795 476625, or at natalie.glanvill@london.newsquest.co.uk.
