The 2nd annual Surbiton Food Festival will run from 3rd to 18th May 2014, featuring many of the your favourite businesses from Surbiton. It is a two week festival with three showcase events; the Seething Sardine Festival, the Surbiton Village Fete, and the Seething Community Sports Day and Picnic.  For details, see www.surbitonfoodfestival.org

This year it will also be the first trial of the Kingston Pound – a way of keeping money in the local area. If you want to take part in the trial see www. kingstonpound.org

These events are part of what makes Surbiton special.  They bring together our community and support our local businesses.  I’m pleased that Lib Dems locally have been able to make sure that they can happen without problems.
