27/08/2008 : Last day of summer fun brighton trip

The last summer day trip for BHP residents was spent at the popular seaside resort of Brighton (9 August).

More than 200 residents of all ages munched on ice-cream, had fish and chips on the pier or did a spot of shopping down Brighton's renowned Lanes.

Maria Mohaya of Stonebridge said the trip to Brighton was: 'Wonderful'.

'Everyone on the trip was very polite and friendly', said Elaine Vaughan from Wembley.

Having a large group of residents in one place is a great opportunity for BHP to get feedback on the services we provide.

"Events like these are used to consult residents and find out how they feel we can improve", said Helen Evans BHP's Managing Director.

"BHP officers were also on hand if residents wanted to know more about what we do or to answer general questions. The trips are also a great way to meet neighbours and find out more about the resident involvement activities BHP organises."
