There was the opportunity to be escorted (in a light hearted manner!) by a Sussex Police officer to see the workings of one of the force’s police vans.

Visitors could also view, and meet the cats looking for new homes and Myra Grove, Centre Manager for Bluebell Ridge says they had numerous enquiries and on the four-legged friends. “We welcomed a fantastic number of visitors to the Spring Fair, “ she said. “After hearing numerous weather reports of thunderstorms, we were very thankful to have a beautiful day of sunshine.
