Before you start

Create an email account you can easily share.

Please create a dedicated email address specifically for running your event. This will make it easier to share with a team, have a dedicated drive for photos, funding bids, and makes it easy to pass on for future events, should you decide not to run it again. You can always automatically forward incoming mail through to your personal email to alert you.

Please make sure your email address can be easily identified to your area, for example, your-area-window-wanderland@gmail.com. Do not use personal names, acronyms or entire city names; a postcode is fine if your area is not identifiable.

To do this, the easiest thing might be to use a third-party provider like Google or Microsoft to create your new email account, then come back here afterwards.

If you prefer to use your personal email address that’s fine too, but we really recommend a dedicated email address from the start. However you can always change the email address associated with your Window Wanderland account later.
