Peace bench

News in Brief

Hastings Quakers are auctioning a stained glasswork entitled The Hope, by local artist Alan Wright, to raise funds for a new bench for the peace garden in Alexandra Park.

The bench is the culmination of a long campaign to persuade Hastings borough council in East Sussex.

The bench, to be donated by the Quakers, will be designed by Alan Wright and fabricated by Jake Bowers, local art blacksmith. To see The Hope, and find details on the auction, please visit: www.glasswright.co.uk and / or www.hastings-quakers.org.uk
