Hide AdCarole Fullick, of the Bognor Community Action Network, said the show also had an educational role.
"It's to bring the community together to find out information about community safety, improving health and the environment.
"That could include growing vegetables in their gardens or learning how to make something.
"The event will have something for all the family and everything is free."
