What has East Preston Film Society ever done for this village?

East Preston Film Society was formed by Paul Amoo in June 2012 so that current cinematic films (29 to date with average attendance of 70) could be shown in the village and all money raised returned as donations to various East Preston causes / groups / events. Screenings are held monthly in the Conservative Hall, Sea Road and all shows are sponsored by Cooper Adams Estate Agents. The film society is run by a small but committed group of volunteers (Carol, Terry, John, Freda, Dorothy, Catherine and Paul). We are always looking to add to this number so if interested in helping then please email epfilmsociety@gmail.com
