Headley Pavilion Grand Opening and Here’s Headley Show

ByNeville Merritt

What a wonderful day we had on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May. The combination of Here’s Headley, the Grand Opening of Headley Pavilion, glorious weather and hundreds of visitors made it a memorable occasion. After a rousing call to action from Frankie Milam, our Headley Bagpiper, Cllr. Mark Dickens Chairman of Headley Parish Council welcomed us all to the new pavilion. After a few more words, Cllr. Graham Hill, Chairman EHDC and Greg Stafford MP opened the Headley Pavilion by unveiling a plaque. Formalities over, we enjoyed the 40+ stalls, food trucks, fire engine and face painting! Here are a few memories, courtesey of Carol and Paul at Tansley Photography.
