Burgess Hill has a very active town twinning association which is working to strengthen links with Abbeville and Schmallenberg. We receive generous support in this from the Town Council. This website has been launched to bring the Association to the attention of a wider public. We hold monthly meetings and our events include the annual dinner, skittles evenings, coffee mornings, BBQs and we participate in the Burgess Hill Summer Festival. You will find full details of recent activities and a programme of future events on this website. For those interested in our ties with Schmallenberg, the next Schmallenberger Woche runs from 25th to 29th August 2010. We welcome new members and you will find details of how to join us here.
