With reference to my letter of early February stating that due to health reasons I am standing down as organiser of The Portland Gooseberry Fayre and asking for someone to come forward to take over the running of this great charity event.

I have to announce that as no one has come forward to take on the organisation, sadly, there will be no more Portland Gooseberry Fayre.

I would like to thank all who helped over the past 13 years, the businesses who sponsored us, the stalls who attended on the day and the groups who put on displays in the arena.

Sue Coleman, Channel View, Portland
