With our counterparts, Les Amis du Jumelage, in Petit-Couronne, we are maintaining permanent bonds between our Towns that were set up in 1978 by providing exchanges of all kinds for our inhabitants with the aim of fostering through greater understanding, peace and prosperity for all.
We are a group of volunteers working on behalf of Beccles Town Council. We are not a 'membership' organisation and are there to support and enable all those who live, work or are otherwise associated with Beccles, so why not contact us and join in some of our events..
Contact us at: twinning.beccles@gmail.com and we are now on facebook too. Click on the link or search Beccles Twinning Association on your facebook page. If you 'like' the page, you will be informed everytime it is updated
OUR 40th Anniversary Celebrations
were celebrated in Beccles in May and what a wonderful weekend it was, and the sun shone throughout, until it was time for our visitors to go home on Sunday morning, We hope to post some picture shortly. Our return visit to celebrate the anniversary in France will be from 5th -8th October 2018 and the application deadline for those who would like to take part on this official trip is midnight on the 20th July, (thereafter we may be able to put you on a 'waiting list'). Contact us at twinning.beccles@gmail.com for more information
In the meantime - French Chat every other Saturday morning 10-11am at Beccles Library
We will be taking part in the Beccles Carnival again on Sunday the 19th August. Do come along to the planning meeting on Tuesday the 14th August, 6.00pm chez David, with ideas and costumes if you are able to join us in the fun this year.
Photos of our most recent visits have been uploaded to links from the 'Gallery' but do take a look at some of the photos taken by our friends in Petit-Couronne on their website (by clicking on the 'Les Amis du Jumelage' text at the top of the page).
