LAUNCH OF #SOUTHEND125

To celebrate, on Valentine’s Day we launched LOVE LETTER TO MY HOMETOWN: SOUTHEND inviting anyone and everyone who loves Southend to write a letter to the old gal, to tell her what you love about her. 

All over town - in cafes, libraries and art spaces you will find postcards waiting for your best creative message. It can be a drawing, a poem, a letter, just a symbol – anything you like. 

Post them back to us and we will display them all in a loving fashion at #VG17. 

Southend will be blushing all over once we’ve finished with her.

If you can’t find a postcard around and about – or you’d like a whole bunch to do as a group activity, just email us at [email protected] and we’ll send some out to you.
