Community groups arrange meeting to help make Bognor a better place

Meetings of this kind, organised by Grandads Front Room founder Danny Dawes, used to be held every quarter, giving members of the community a chance to have their say on a variety of issues, but had to be stopped due to the complications of the pandemic.

Yesterday’s event, which brought councillors from Bognor Regis Town Council, Arun District and the County Council together with food bank volunteers, staff from Crimsham Farm, Family Support Work and a variety of other community groups, was the first such meeting held in almost eighteen months.

Addressing the group, Bognor Regis town councillor Wayne Smith, summarised the meeting’s ethos and aims.
