Join Rob Francis for Overton Now this afternoon from 2pm–5pm.

He’ll cover the Overton Youth FC Santa Float winding through the village on Saturday, a wreath-making workshop for kids at Overton Emporia, and the pressure on our village pubs (The Red Lion, Overton, The Greyhound, Overton, The White Hart Overton, Old The Old House at Home) as winter sets in. There’s also a sharp preview of this weekend’s Overton Rugby Football Club action.

And at 4:20pm, the all-important Sleeps to Santa countdown.

Overton Now. This afternoon. Don’t miss it.
