Your committee have resolved to set up a working party to looking into ways to strengthen our relationship with Saint-Maur-Des-Fosses and get Town Twinning back on track following the dissolution of the French Exchange Group.  We have many challenges not least fund raising have we had to start from scratch.

We have however made great progress in a short terms and have currently got six people who have agreed to sit on the working party three of have lived or had a home in France and are French Speakers.  Thanks to David Roach; John Russell; Maralyn Green, Joelle Marsh, Laraine Nash & Helen Thompson.

As regards the Interpretation Board the text and photographs have been agreed and we are seeking ex Mayors Stephen Goodheart's input as he visited and met with the Mayor of Saint-Maur-Des-Fosses last year.  Victoria Owens (nee Hilditch) of Vimco Marketing is all lined up to undertake the design and has introduced us to some printers.  The board itself is being supplied by the Bognor Regis Arts & Heritage Trust who have also agreed to pay the cost of the Artwork & Printing.  Installation will be undertaken by the Bognor Regis Town Force and the cost of installation is kindly being funded by the Town Council

Ray Hagger wishes to thank Heather Perrot and Maralyn Green for all their hard work in this regard.
