Let’s Talk Stansted were delighted to get a warm virtual welcome from representatives of our twin-town Rungis.
Participants in the Race to Rungis have now reached the half way stage in their journey to the French town, which is located just outside Paris.
A video put together by the Rungis Twinning Committee has been sent to the group warmly praising them for their endeavour.
The film is a fantastic example of the friendship and co-operation between the twin towns, and serves to remind everyone of the beautiful setting Rungis is set in.

Following the recent twinning of Stansted with the town of Rungis in France, the Stansted Twinning Committee is now looking for volunteers to accommodate or to chaperone our French visitors. This could include accompanying them on visits to local places of interest. It is not essential to be a French speaker.
If you are interested in registering as a host or chaperone, please contact the Twinning Committee, or come along to our Cheese & Wine event on Friday 25th January 2019 at the Stansted Day Centre, Crafton Green, 8pm to find out more.
