Sittingbourne Footbal Club (SFC) had a stand at the Forum Shopping Centre's "New Year's Resolutions Day" on Saturday (10th January).

The idea behind the day was that Sittingbourne residents should consider new things to do in 2015 and there were numerous stalls in the centre showcasing local clubs, associations and charities.
