McDonald’s franchisee lights up Mansfield with Christmas tree sponsorship
Mansfield’s town centre is shining brighter than ever this festive season, thanks to local McDonald’s Franchisee Jacqueline Moore, Executive Mayor Andy Abrahams, Cllr Ellis and McDonald’s agency partner Linney’s. Jacqueline proudly sponsored the town’s stunning 25ft Norwegian spruce and, together with Cllr Ellis and Linney’s, co-sponsored the brand-new festive lights - creating a vibrant celebration that brings the community together this holiday season.
The ceremony was made extra special with edition of the Ravenshead Under 11’s football team, who Jacqueline and her restaurants have sponsored since 2022, being the honoured guests to mark the occasion by switching on the Christmas Tree’s lights and spreading the festive joy. Mansfield BID also played a key role in planning, funding, and promoting a wide range of festive activities - bringing the town together, supporting local businesses, and making Christmas in Mansfield a memorable community experience.
Local McDonald’s Franchisee Jacqueline Moore, who owns and operates six restaurants across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, said:“Being a good neighbour is an integral part of McDonald’s ethos as a brand and being able to sponsor the light and tree this year for Mansfield has made me enormously proud. My team and I take an active role in being part of our community and it brought us all a lot of joy having the Ravenshead team with us to light up the town centre. Our success is built on the strength of the communities we serve – It’s the heart of what we do. When the community thrives, we all thrive.”
Executive Mayor of Mansfield, Andy Abrahams, said: “This season is all about community coming together to spread festive joy. We are always thrilled to work with our partners and are grateful to Jacqueline and McDonald’s for the sponsoring our new Christmas Tree and lights in the town centre. This festive partnership truly reflects the spirit of Mansfield – bringing people together, celebrating community pride, and creating moments that matter.”
This sponsorship reflects McDonald’s long-standing commitment to being a good neighbour and supporting the communities it serves. By helping Mansfield shine brighter this Christmas, Jacqueline Moore and her team have shown how local partnerships can create moments of joy and togetherness for everyone.
