Number 2262 (Bexhill) Squadron, Air Training Corps cadets will be providing two displays during the afternoon event.

The band of Little Common Branch of the Royal British Legion and Eastbourne Pipe Band will provide live music for an event due to be open at 1pm by the Town Mayor.

But loss of local organisations such as the Association of Bexhill Citizens and the Tangent Club means that some regular stall-holders would be noticeable by their absence this year, said the organiser.

Mr Mayne is appealing for any individuals and organisations willing to organise and run stalls on the day to contact him on 01424 733876.

The cost of printing raffle ticket for the event has been generously covered by local firm SBS. The programme is being printed free of charge, thanks to Mummerys undertakers.
