THE Streets of Wealden performances returned to the town centre today (Saturday) for another year with a variety of artists and performances to promote Wealden’s high streets and increase footfall.
The event was fully funded through the council’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund from the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, and being delivered by local events company, 18 Hours.
Performances included Xena Flame with her hoops workshop, Circo Rum Ba Ba performing L’Hotel – and an all-new performance by MENCAP with the Inside Out Theatre Company.
Councillor Paul Coleshill, Alliance for Wealden (Liberal Democrat) and lead councillor for Climate Change and Economy, said: “These free activities planned for the high streets across Wealden are fun for all the family and I hope our communities will go along and enjoy the performances.
“The funding received from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund helps us to host events like these and show support to communities and our local towns and village centres. Polegate will see the finale of the UKSPF funded Streets of Wealden programme in March 2025 – so keep your eyes peeled for more details early next year.”
