On Wednesday 27th March 2024, Bognor Regis Town Council held their annual Civic Reception, hosted by the Mayor, Cllr. Francis Oppler, at ‘Seasons’ which was attended by our Chairman Heather Perrot and Vice-Chairman Ray Hagger.
The evening acts as an opportunity to thank the many organisations, charities and community groups who work tirelessly to provide opportunities, services and events for the people of Bognor Regis. Some of these organisations are thanked through the provision of Grant Aid funding, cheques for which were presented by Cllr. Oppler at the Civic Reception. Heather Perrot on behalf of the twinning association was presented a cheque for £400 which will help help support our youth activities in particular to support our youth programme during the visit by Weil Am Rhein and Trebbin in July.
Also present were our wonderful Town Crier, Jane Smith, and we enjoyed some rousing performances from the West Sussex Music ‘Urban Brass Band’, a group of students from around the locality, who recently won ‘gold’ at the Chichester Festival of Music, Dance and Speech.
