What a good opportunity to be able to speak to companies and to those that provide services to our area! I know it can be a mine field on how to get in touch plus sitting on the phone for ages too! I am hoping that this event will be supported by our community and not be another reason to scathe our MP!
Well done Sally-Ann Hart – excellent idea at this difficult time for people. Do hope the event is well supported.
It would be good if Rye Library and GP surgeries could have some information sheets for people to pick up if they cannot attend the event on 22 October.
