Burnham-on-Sea MP Sir Ashley Fox has thanked everyone who took part in his Pensioners’ Fair on Friday (7th November), which was well attended by residents throughout the morning.
Held at Burnham-on-Sea Methodist Church and organised in partnership with The Waffle Hub, the event brought together over 30 local organisations, charities and businesses offering advice, information, and opportunities for older residents and those who care for them.
Ashley Fox said, “It was fantastic to see so many people come along and make the most of the event. My thanks go to everyone who exhibited, to all those who attended, and in particular to The Waffle Hub for their partnership and support in making the day such a success. Events like this are a reminder of the range of local services available in Burnham-on-Sea for our older residents. It was a real pleasure to bring them all together under one roof.”
Exhibitors included Merryweather Solicitors, Digital Dignity, Village Agents, Arthritis UK, Burnham & Weston Energy Company, Somerset Sight, Nationwide Building Society, Age UK Somerset, Somerset Bus Partnership, and many others.
The event was part of Ashley’s work to connect residents with local support and strengthen community links across the constituency.
