"Vibrant Bexleyheath", says Mayor

Christmas hampers, donated by Kent Food Fayre, were presented by Bexley's Mayor and Mayoress. Cllrs Brian and Aileen Beckwith, to Margaret Penny, 74, a Shopmobility volunteer since May 1997 and to Rosa Marsden, 81, who has used the service since 1996, during their day out in Bexleyheath on Thursday 7 December.

We have great pleasure in announcing that the winner of the Towns web pages, Kent Food Fayres Competition is Wendy Vincent.

The mayoral couple, making their Christmas visit to the town, led carol singing on behalf of the Greenwich and Bexley Cottage Hospice, and were presented with a mobile phone, to be raffled for this year's Mayor's Charity Appeal for the Parkinson Disease Society, by Kerry Allon, manager of Orange Retail.

Afterwards the Mayor, congratulating Shopmobilty for putting on an extra day of service this Christmas, said: "Bexleyheath is vibrant this year and certainly open for business."
