Richard has celebrated the success of his Older Persons' Fairs held in Billericay and Laindon.
Speaking after the events, Richard said:
"In the last few weeks, I’ve hosted my inaugural annual Older Persons’ Fairs at the Chantry Centre in Billericay and at the Community centre in Laindon. With around 20 organisations at each providing expert and useful information, contacts and advice they have been very positive.
They a big success with loads of local people turning up to each one, and I’m eternally grateful for each organisation for taking the time to run a stand. Next years will be even bigger and better, and my team and I are taking on the feedback from attendees and the organisation. If you have any comments on how to improve, then please comment them below!
