The market will take place in East Street, Chichester, between 9am and 2pm and will be themed ‘Feel Good Friday’. For this market, the traditional traders — who will be offering fresh local produce and artisan goods — will be joined by representatives from Everyone Active, Nuffield Health, Fitjoy, Citizens Advice Arun & Chichester, as well as Chichester District Council’s Social Prescribers, Wellbeing team and Supporting You team, to offer information and advice on health, wellbeing and finances.

Councillor Jess Brown-Fuller, Cabinet Member for Culture and Events at Chichester District Council, says: “As we enter the New Year, many of us will be thinking about how we can improve our health and wellbeing.

Everyone Active, Nuffield Health, Fitjoy, and the council’s Social Prescribers, Wellbeing Team and Supporting You team, will be on hand to chat to you about a range of matters from healthy eating on a budget and reducing your alcohol intake, to being more active and improving your emotional wellbeing.
