Many thanks to all those who came to my Pensioners’ Fair on Friday and thank you to the landlords of the Montague Quarter for allowing us the use of this excellent venue. I was last there when opening the pop-up art exhibition which made good use of the former shop over the summer and it would be good to have more temporary events like this until these former shops are developed.
We had over 20 different organisations and a constant stream of local people throughout the morning and many leaflets, free pens, sweets, stress balls and much advice was dispensed. Everyone from University of the 3rd Age (U3A) to Citizen’s Advice, the Stroke Association and WASPI were there with helpful information and support with our senior citizens along with the Adur Chair Councillor Joss Loader and Mayor Paul Baker who kindly dropped by.
You can find a full list and contacts of all those who took below:
