New chair for Wisbech-Arles Twinning Club

At the recent AGM of the Wisbech-Arles Twinning Club a new chairman was elected, Nick Meekins taking over the reins from Tony Twitchett.

Mr Meekings said: “I am really pleased to have been elected.

“Due to Covid there has been no twinning activity for a couple of years, but hopefully that situation will change soon.

“I visited Arles several years ago and am looking forward to going again. It is a Roman town, with several impressive buildings including a magnificent arena, similar to the Colosseum in Rome. It is also famous for being the home for many years of Vincent van Gogh.”

“The twinning club was formed at the request of Wisbech Town Council in 1964, so in 2024 it will be its diamond anniversary and that will be one of the main focuses of the group in the near future.”
