Denmead Twinning Association

Twinning families
On joining the Twinning Association, a Denmead family is linked with a family from Saint-Georges. The Association currently has a membership of over 40 families; Saint-Georges has a similar number. The annual visit
The highlight of the year is when families from the two villages visit for a long weekend, normally in May. One year the Denmead families visit Saint-Georges and the f

ollowing year Saint-Georges families come to Denmead. Visitors stay with their linked family who host them during their three-day visit; the long weekend allows for many social events, individual outings and visits to local places of interest. As a group, we have taken our Saint-Georges visitors to places including Spinnaker Tower, Fishbourne Roman Palace, D-Day Museum, HMS Warrior, and Wi******er. Many friendships have been established over the years. Social events
There are also several social events that are held throughout the year in Denmead to enable the members and their guests to meet, have an enjoyable evening together, and raise funds for the Association. These are really good fun events and well attended. Over the years we have held dinners (Saint-Georges, Burns Night, Italian evening, BBQs), music (Shep Woolley, Barn Dances, Steel Band, Summer Jazz Party) plus quizzes, jumble sales, and garden parties. AGM
In January each year, the Annual General Meeting is held. Here the Chairman and Treasurer report to members, the committee for the next year is elected and members can make their views known.
