to the November edition of the Town

Crier. Our cover photo is of the ‘Paper

Dialogues’ exhibition which took place in the Town Hall’s

Assembly Room last month, and which entranced visitors

in their hundreds, including many groups of students.

From early this month the Roll of Honour is once

again on display in the arcade of de Gruchy’s, reminding

us that we are half-way through the Royal British Legion’s

Poppy Appeal which culminates in Armistice Day and

Remembrance Sunday. It is always an honour to welcome

the Chelsea Pensioners to St Helier and the reception

following the service at the Cenotaph on Sunday 13th

November gives us the chance to listen to their stories

as well as to meet some of the many other veterans who

take part in the parade. The Jersey Eistedfodd also gets

underway this month, giving islanders of all ages the

opportunity to perform on various stages especially at the

Opera House. Town traders will be particularly focused

this month on enhancing their appeal to shoppers in the

run–up to Christmas; several traders’ groups are supported

by the Parish in their efforts to ensure that areas such as

Colomberie, West’s Centre, Conway Street and the Parade

manage to attract customers, while the presence of

numerous restaurants, pubs and cafés in St Helier mean

that a trip to town is a satisfying experience for residents,

shoppers and visitors alike.

We hope you enjoy receiving our monthly Parish

magazine. Available by post and email (on request), from

a dozen distribution points in St Helier, and online, the

Town Crier combines useful information with news about

events that take place in our busy Parish. We are grateful

to our advertisers whose support enables us to produce

the magazine at no cost to ratepayers. Please let us know

if you would like to be included in the mailing list.
