offer to the community

borough, Catherine Donnelly, has been involved with the event for eight years now and says she has thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them.

“The Expo is a great event to promote the services or activities that are available in Marlborough, all in one venue.

“The great thing is that there is a wide variety of services/ organisations that take part, that cover a variety of needs, from volunteering agencies to health professionals.”

Alzheimer’s Marlborough will be promoting the services they offer, have information on dementia, and how and where to get support.

“As with other years, there is a lot of information that is available to take away with you, and that often includes chocolates! The volunteers or staff that man’ the stalls have a wealth of knowledge and can often put people’s minds at rest.

“The atmosphere at the expo’s is always positive and friendly, there is always someone there that can answer your question or will know another person who will.”

There will be a wide range of organisations with information on health, financial entitlements, support services, legal issues, social and recreational activities, safety and security and a lot more.

A range of demonstrations will held in the foyer area throughout the day including A Capella Belles, pet therapy, library resources, and exercises for wellbeing, amongst other informative stalls.

Entry to the event is free and refreshments are also provided with fresh muffins available courtesy of Geoffrey T Sowman funeral directors.

The Blenheim bus will be operating on the day and will be free to Gold Card holders.
