Showcase SUCCESS!

by

Second Showcase Success.

Eastleigh’s Second Community Showcase, at The Point, Eastleigh on Saturday the 2nd of February was a great success, despite freezing conditions.

45 local charities exhibited at the event, showcasing their activities and services and recruiting volunteers. Live performances were staged in the main auditorium by Ukes for All and the Eastleigh Fusion Choir.

The Showcase is a partnership event between One Community and The Point. As well as meeting the public, who arrived in their hundreds, exhibitors were busy networking and making new contacts.

Exhibitors ranged from Solent Movie Makers to Prostate Cancer Support, the Scouts to the Samaritans, The Red Box Project to Highbridge Community Farm.

Visitors included Eastleigh’s Mayor, Cllr Bruce Tennant and Eastleigh’s MP Mims Davies, both of whom were impressed by the turn out, and enjoyed the opportunity to chat to so many charities under one roof.
