Colleagues from West Sussex and Brighton and Hove Age UK held a pop-up event at Crawley Town Hall last Monday. They were on hand to give out lots of advice on community activities in the borough. Councillor Michael Jones, Leader of Crawley Borough Council, Councillor Sue Mullins, Cabinet member for Community Engagement and Culture, and Councillor Chris Mullins, Cabinet member for Leisure and Wellbeing, popped in to welcome the team and learn about their activities.

I would like to thank the Age UK team for setting up this pop-up event. In the few minutes that we were there saying hello, we could see how busy the team was. I look forward to welcoming them back soon.

Leader

Crawley Borough Council

Age UK plays a vital role in our community and offers highly valued support to our older residents. By letting people know what events and activities are happening in the local area gives residents the opportunity to get out and about and perhaps pick up a new hobby. Many thanks to the team for coming to Crawley.

We shared lots of helpful information and advice about our services and the range of different activities available in Crawley and how to join in. The event was a great success, and we are planning to hold another event at the Town Hall in April.”
