In the charity's own words
We promote Bognor Regis local history by offering monthly meetings with talks on various subjects. We also offer slide shows and talks to local schools and adult groups, plus attend seasonal events with our own stall. Finally, the society operates a local history museum in the town, run entirely by the volunteer membership.
