We have received the following request from a town in France who wish to arrange a Twinning link with a UK town.
I am a Briton living in France, and have been asked my our mayor to help identify a possible 'twin. in the UK.
Pamproux is in the department of Deux-Sevres, in the Poitou-Charentes region. It is situated midway between Niort and Poitiers, about 30 minutes to each by car. Pamproux has a population of just under 2000 with facilities including a modern salle de fetes (village hall), tennis courts, swimming pool, campsite, football pitch and a range of small shops. The area is low hills and valleys, with the principle employment being light industry, agriculture and associated businesses, and tourism.
If this interests you please contact us via this website and we will pass on the contact information.
A distinct advantage here is that one of the people involved is a Brit which will help with any language problems in the initial contact.
There is also a strong history of UK twinning in the area as both nearby towns have UK twins as Niort is twinned with Wellingborough and Poitiers is twinned with Northampton.
