Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council Visit

Portfolio Holder for Leisure, Culture and Heritage and the Chief Executive Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council Visit the Philip Astley Centre

The Philip Astley Centre today was visited by Cllr Craig Skelding, who is Portfolio Holder for Leisure, Culture and Heritage and the Chief Executive Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council Gordon Mole. Both were absolutely amazed by the Centre as well as our current Showpeople of North Staffordshire Exhibition which is being extended to run through October.

The Showpeople exhibition has been a part of celebrating World Funfair Month – which is a global celebration held every September.

It’s fantastic to see such positive support from these local leaders for the Centre and the legacy of Philip Astley.
