The Worthing Society

On Tuesday 26th September, trustees Fred Weller and Cllr. Tom Wye met Susan Belton, chair of The Worthing Society, in the vestibule to the lecture theatre in the basement of Worthing Library. Also attending were the Mayor and Mayoress who were there to help celebrate the Society’s 37th anniversary. Tom and Fred were representing Worthing Community Chest who had awarded the Society a grant of £758.97. The grant was used to buy visual aid equipment to enable the Society to visit colleges, schools, clubs and other smaller groups to help inform and inspire a new generation of Worthing residents in the history of the fabric and social evolution of their town. ‘Tom and I were delighted to go up front of the members and display the large cheque ‘ said Fred Weller ‘It was clear from the introduction we were given by Susan that this grant has made a significant contribution to the work of the Society’

Susan Belton, Worthing Society Chair thanked Worthing Community Chest ‘ We are very appreciative of the grant award and have already carried out three talks using the equipment’ she added’It was a lovely way to celebrate our 35th anniversary year’. Worthing Community Chest funds all kinds of groups in Worthing, ranging from heritage, to arts, to sports.
